Any one with experience with these 2 skimmers please sound off some advice/ opinions. I am choosing between these two skimmers for a 45g (60g total volume) frag tank. The Vertex IN-100 or the Reef Octopus NWB 110 2010 model. Both are close in $ with the Vertex being a tad bit more. Beside the footprint of the vertex being very large (it will fit in my sump) differences...similarities?
Thanks in advance.

I would look at a SWC 120 cone if it were me. Should be close in price. I had a Vertex In-100 and an Octo DNWB 150 on different tanks in the past; like the construction, performance, etc. of my SWC 160 better. The 120 is a smaller version. Quieter for one, easier to adjust and clean. Better performer. Under $200

I just ordered the SWC 120...can't wait to receive it! I have heard so much good about these SWC skimmers I could not refuse it. With all of my research and reading, the SWC won.
