Skimmer Octopus

[Constantino Filho]

Dear friends,
I am a hobbyist in Brazil for over 30 years. I participate in a community called ?IPAq? (www.ipaq.org.br) where I am a moderator and it was there that I met you.
I hope from now on whenever possible to participate at this Site.
At the moment my wife and daughter are in their town and would like to know if there is any shop recommended it for you to buy one for an aquarium Skimmer Octopus "Coral Reef" of 450 liters.
I also wonder what skimmer you guide me and what price the same?
I also need a small 3 automatic feeders. What do you advise me and what price the same?
I count on your help and appreciate the help.
Constantino Filho.

Welcome to Manhattan reefs. What city are they in, and how long will they be staying?

Thanks for the welcome!
They are in Manhattan near Central Park.
I appreciate your guidance!

I think your decision to purchase a Reef Octopus Skimmer is spot on mate. Here are the models I would suggest (any would work fine):

Reef Octopus SRO 1000INT
Reef Octopus SRO 2000INT
Reef Octopus SRO XP 1000SSS
Reef Octopus SRO XP 2000SSS
Reef Octopus Extreme XS 160

Prices and ratings are all listed in the links above.
Without knowing your budget (price) for a skimmer or the space you have available for it, the above recommendations will all work for you. The ones rated a bit higher than 450 liters (118g) will permit you to stock your tank heavier and/or allow for expansion to a larger tank in the future.

Hope this helps,
Russ
