I would go for the reef octopus , city pets have one of those under one tank u can see it in action

Reef octopus is one of the better brands.

I'm never seen a RO not pull a bunch of skimate.

City pet is using the xs225 for the frag tank. I was looking at that one but I don't think it would fit in my sump. So have to get the smaller one. But then I saw the eshopps s200. It has the same pump as the xs225.

Eshopps s-200 = psk1000
diablo xs160 = psk600

Which one cost more?

[johnnytrinh]

Eshopps = 300$
diablo = 275$

I have the RO NWB 110 on my 40g, real solid skimmer. Easily adjustable
