Anyone knows where to buy all the above protein skimmers at reasonable price?

Most preferable in Singapore.

Thanks a lot.

looking for something like outside the sump but not those hang-on type.

main tank 3 x 2 x 2 inch

sump 2 x 1.8 x 1.8 inch

[SharkBait]

Your total tank volume after minusing the rocks and everything should be around 80-90 gallon. you should barely scrapped through with Euro-reef ES5-3 which has a capacity of 90 gallon.Think PR selling it at $550.But the footprint is pretty big, think you will need to allocate a 1' by 1' space for it in the sump.

thats what you get when you need skimmers for increased water volume. (=

[Octopuffy]

main tank 3 x 2 x 2 inch

sump 2 x 1.8 x 1.8 inch

Inch? Mighty small tank

Btw, I've seen bros in Reef Central giving better reviews to AquaC Remora Pro then Urchin Pro. IMHO, Urchin models might not be better than Remoras.

Just my 5 cents...
