Air-driven Skimmer

[ocean]

I am planning to buy an air-driven protein skimmer. Which is a good brand to buy...Sanders, ORCA, etc?? Which is more reliable/efficient? Saw one called AA brand but I think it is not counter-current which is supposedly better, right? Kindly also advise where can I buy one at a good price.

What about air-pump? any good recommendations?

i suggest u save ur money and buy venturi type..... if budget is a constraint just get a weipro skimmer.... in fact, considering the hussle of buying and changing airstone from time to time is not worth it, u'd rather buy a better one... if u still insist, i got a used one, sell u $20 bucks inclusive of air pump

is it working on counter-current method? is there only one or many models from ORCA? its price seems to be much lower than Sanders. any particular reason?
