[GoodFish]

I am planning on buying a sump later on once i have my tank up n running, however, I kno i cant get the bakpak 2 protein skimmer for a sump so does anyone kno of a hig quality skimmer i can buy

I've heard good things about the AquaC Urchin.

The Euro Reef series is a quality line or you can look at the ASM's which are Eruo Reef clones. Both at Captivereefs.com.

I have the Aqua C Urchin Pro in my sump and it is fantastic. It is easy to set up and produces a good think skimmate. Definitely worth the price.

I know you said that you didn't want to build your own, but here's a link to mine which doesn't require much building.
