Octopus Hang on Back Skimmer

[kurt72]

I have 60 gallon setup and I don't feel the need for a sump right now. Currently I have a seaclone(seaclown) skimmer. Yeah, I know, IT BLOWS!! Anyway, I have read a lot of good things here about the Octopus Skimmers. But mainly the in sump models. What about the Hang on Back skimmers? Anyone out there have one? The prices seem reasonable enough compared to some other HOB skimmers. The seaclons has GOT TO GO!!! All my livestock is thriving, I couldnt be happier. I just want something that REALLY, REALLY skims.
