:shall i chime in here:? well, why not.
I own a HOB style RO, it is rubbish, no better than the crap via-aqua one i replaced.
I have modified this skimmer, its better than before but in my book going from worse than useless to useless is not a great thing.
I have not had any first hand experience with the in sump models, most of which look well made, in fact i would say the build looks better than the price would allow.
I agree with those that say get the best skimmer you can afford, remember to keep in mind this dose not mean the best RO skimmer you can afford but the best skimmer on the market for the money you want to spend.
Pick a few skimmers in your price range a get some feed back from OWNERS who are not going to financially benefit from you buying that skimmer. People with real world experience are priceless in this decision.
How much do you have to spend on your skimmer? this is an important question and i hope you don't mind me asking it, but it will assist those here to make suggestions on possible models to suit your needs, we will also need to know what size tank it will be on and a general over view of the plan for the tank.
