I am leaning towards the Deltec 600i or maxspect jump sk400 for my wife Red Sea 350xl gen2 as the Red Sea 300 dc skimmer we have is a pain to get right. Looking to spend under $500. It’s a mixed reef with lots of fish
Thanks

I have had a few skimmers and I am currently running the Deltec and it is by far the best skimmer I have ever had very easy to dial inI am leaning towards the Deltec 600i or maxspect jump sk400 for my wife Red Sea 350xl gen2 as the Red Sea 300 dc skimmer we have is a pain to get right.

Yeah I second that while bulletproof, cheaper reef octopus skimmers are definitely not particularly silent. Absolutely indestructible though.+ 1 for Reef Octo.
I have had many brands over the years and none are as consistent and well-built as Reef Octo. I will admit I have never owned a Deltec.
If you want silent operation go with the Regal or Elite.
Yea the classics have a decent hum to them. I cannot hear my Regal 150 outside my RS stand. Have to open the cabinet to verify its running.Yeah I second that while bulletproof, reef octopus skimmers are definitely not particularly silent. Absolutely indestructible though.
Yep! for a smaller tank like mine the HOB Reef octopus is fantastic. Very easy to control how wet or dry you want the skim.If they make a reef octopus skimmer that runs moderately oversized for your tank, that's always my recommendation. Things are indestructible. Mine is at least a decade old. Still pulls thick sticky brown crud. Set and forget for the most part. Replaceable pump.
