octopus HOB skimmer
I decided I wanted to try an octopus HOB for my predator tank, and I'm not sure which to go with. The online supplier I can get them from is pretty vague in its descriptions.
Octopus Dual HOB skimmer OCT-BH-300 dual pump, skims 135 gal....$129.99 Octopus HOB with filter system includes skimmer, filter chamber and surface skimmer.....$159.99 Why can't I find a homepage for octopus?

Re: octopus HOB skimmer
Try http://www.octopusskimmer.com/ Octopus is the company that use to make the ASM skimmers which they changed there name and no longer make the ASM series.

Re: octopus HOB skimmer
I'm throwing a lionfish in a 40, nothing extravagant. I picked up a 40, 2X21W t5's, maxi 900, maxi 1200, 30lbs rock, sand, leathers, hammer, GSP and some others as a rescue for 100 bones.
