Hi again,

Yes, I went with ACI because they take phone calls, and the rep. was very professional. Unfortunately, the Terminator II staff member tester called in sick the day I called, but I b ought it anyways. The sumpless kit, I believe, is slightly less at ACI than Foster, Smith.

i've seen the skimmer running right beside a equivalent rated CSS.

There is no way I would buy the terminator. it has SO much piping(places were things can go wrong) and the design is awkward to work with.

Most importantly... it doens't skim well

Hi,

I'm hoping the skimmer will increase my oxygen levels in my tank. As it is, the oxygen is barely adquate and sometimes I can go to critical, especially when the flow gets shut down. The Terminator came in today, and its alot of machine for the price. I haven't heard anyone chime in who owns one, so its performance is up fro grabs; its quite shall we say complex, as if a lot of thought went into it's design. The sumpless kit did not come, but I did order it, and it should be here soon.

Paul
