Reef octo 200sss

Anyone have one of these? I bought one on Facebook. Was supposed to be a 150, but when I got it, it was a 200sss.

I have the 150 with the regular motor. It does good. Just wanted more control over skimming with the DC motor. I’m going to put it in my system when I get a few days off. The 200 Looks allot bigger than the one I’m using.

I have the 150SSS and I really like it. It's been a solid skimmer that I rarely have to adjust and even then it's only in small increments thanks to the gate valve. I have been looking for a used 200SSS off and on, but so far the 150 is fine on my 180.

I also wanted a DC pump motor that I can run directly off of the battery backups I’ve built. I have a Varios return pump too, for the same reason.

I just noticed I put I had a 150. It’s a marine-land 180. May be overkill for it, but with the DC motor, I can dial it down.
