Interesting.

I didn't see anything that made me want to throw my BK out, but that is a nifty looking skimmer.

The cool colored acrylic will surely help make it sell.

Thats an expensive price tag for a piece of plastic.

WOW! That's alot of $$$$$$$$. How does the water get back out of the skimmer?

There seems to be a surge of four figure skimmers these days.

hmm..i like mine better. and i like it's pricetag WAY better.

If I was 21 all over again I would use that baby as a glorified ****.
Its too pretty to fill with green gunk..... then again....... :lol:

I don't know who much testing and verification and validation did they do to ensure the plankton is saved, and the metric for gentleness and efficency. :? :roll:

It is in Euro or Peruian money?

$1193.00 for a skimmer are you kidding,I would not pay that much for a skimmer if it was the last skimmer on earth.

its funny you should say that, all the zeo guys are throwing their BKs out for this and reporting better results. to early to tell but who knows...

seems extrmemly expensive and I am not a fan of the color or construction. it seems like it's a take on the mod'ing a becket thread over on RC as well...

i am also curious because these skimmers have been out in taiwain for awhile...although i assume not under the kz name...

Having owned many skimmers in my days ranging from $20 to $1,500, I've come to the personal conclusion that it doesn't take very much money to make a proper skimmer, and the differences between my current 4 figure skimmer and my previous $400 skimmer is not all that dramatic.

If you have the money, by all means, pony up for the more expensive design if it is better. But I rather put my money into livestock I guess I'm simply not a fan of reefkeeping gadgetry, despite my current equipment list suggesting otherwise The beauty of this hobby is that it can appeal to a wide range of people, including "techies."

 

[eric.m.s]

i agree 100%

but maybe this plankton friendly design, that doesnt electro charge elements causing them to precipitate like normal NW's will be the real thing...


....but probably not

 

[Anonymous]

needlewheels destroy plankton?

sez who ? :?

:roll:

 

[Anonymous]

wouldn't the charge on the air bubbles skin 'electo charge' elements as well?

alot of this sounds like kaka mythpropaganda to me

 

[eric.m.s]

vitz, i was being sarcastic

those were some of the initial claims...

My $14,099 skimmer *create* planktons and coral embryos from CO2, nitrate and H2O in the tank water with a patented plasma mechanism. Anyone interested? (BTW, it is 100% transparent, and take up no room under your tank)

ah-and here i thought i was dealing with a genuine eco-aqualyzer fan!

 

[eric.m.s]

you mean those magnets dont work?


again, i say we hold off judgement. people are reposrting good things already, and it looks like quite a skimmer based on skimate pictures.

 

[Anonymous]

i'm only questioning its meeting the value of its price, based on what's currently available/around, and even if it's an improvement on what's out there, if the amount of improvement is not only justified, but even necessary

fyi-afaik-nothing has yet to compare with a limewood air diffuser driven skimmer-at least for bubble size and density (given the properly strengthed air supply, natch)

 

[pwj1286]

ive been following that skimmer on zeovit.

They look really promising.
