hye justin it looks nice

anyway the pros and cons of the hsa 1000

#1 beckett injector that creates a lot of turbulance and stands 3 1/2 tall to take out plenty of crap. good for up to a 1000 gallion tank.
#2 easy to adjust.
#3 more suitable for heavely stcked tanks

#4 comes with seperate waste chamber

#5 easy to take apart once you download the way from the website

cons

needs adjustments all the time based on water evaporation and additions of water respectively

everyone has a different opinion on how to use it even the manufacturer that i spoke to who contradicts the instruction manuel given. LOL

needs a powerful pump that is at least 1000 gallions per hour and can be costly with the electric.

NYCmat do you have a closer shot of the foam. I would like to see the concentration of the bubbles, not just a dirty skimmer neck

deltec mce600
pros-easyset up plug and play , well made, energy eff.,quiet,very compact,compartment for carbon built into skimmer
cons- expensive
i have had quite a few skimmers euro, mtc they have all performed well with some tinkering with this skimmer there is nothing to do open the air set your cup for wet or dry skimming that is it
