Reef Octopus EXT 150 - any experience?

[jthomps123]

Im looking to upgrade my skimmer for a 75 gal. I need a HOB or external skimmer as my sump will not accomodate most in sump skimmers. The skimmer must also be no taller than 25" or so.

Im looking at a Reef Octopus EXT 150 Recirc model:
Reef Octopus EXT 150Recirculating Needle Wheel Protein Skimmer* - AquaCave

Does anyone have experience with this skimmer, or any others that fit these requirements?

Thanks
Jason

Funny you should ask that question as I have been asking a similar question...
here is a link to some other questions on the Octopus Skimmers.
