Well, I don't think the skimmer itself is low quality... The only problem would be that it's apparently missing some things. I with my limited knowledge would prefer a skimmer with everything included, but you can always try it and see if it helps save money.

Agree with Books.....the riser tube in the collection cup is missing, which isnt that big of a deal because you could use regular thin walled PVC pipe to make it.

The only problem I have is that the Jebo skimmers are not that efficent at all...it is however better than a seaclone or prizm IMO. Check on ebay...jebo skimmers and other better skimmers are usually easy to be found with some pretty decent prices.

Thanks guys; unfortunately, they are sold out of them all ready. I thought for sure that you and Liana had said that Jebo had good skimmers, Nate. That is why I even thought about it. Oh well, What brand do you guys recommend then? I will look on Ebay for one if I know what to look for. That is not a big deal. I just saw it and thought it was a pretty good deal is all. I did know that the riser tube was gone. I knew that wouldn't be hard to get a hold of though, so I wasn't too worried about that. Please just let me know what a good brand is so I can be on the look out for one.
