Sucks they went out of business they screwed me on a controller.
They make good skimmers but if ever need parts for it they would be hard to find because they aren't made anymore.
Wow! Ok I am in need of a skimmer. So does anyone recommend Vertex? It seems a lot of buyers complain it is loud. I am not a equipment geek therefore don't know if they are worth the money. So I am now looking at getting a 100g tank for my birthday. What are your thoughts on the Vertex Omega 150 skimmer? Would you recommend this for a 100g or a different brand? I was looking at the Red Octo 150int
