they are brillaint for getting oily rsidue off your water altough if you have floating plants then they wont work as the plants clock up your skimmer they cost 8.50 at my lfs

spraybar is good to use at certain periods to make them think it rains wich might promote spawning but if you run it all the time then they get used to it

SO BASIKLY MATE YOUR SAYING THEY ARE BOTH A GOOD IDEA?
I DO NOT HAVE ANY FLOATING PLANTS AT ALL.
THE CHEEPIST I FOUND THE SKIMMER AT WAS £30..

you should have a look eheim also makes a skimmer for freshwater filters that does look superior to the fluval altough double the price ive made my own skimmer from a diy plan i found on THE KRIBB website on headings for diy plans and it worked brilliant for me and cost me about a fiver wich make it worthit just to buy the fluval less work altough it is my hobby to make most equipment myself and my homemade kalkstirrer works better than the ones you buy

THAT WOULD BE GREAT MATE, JUST GET US THE PRICE NEXT TIME YOUR IN THERE AND LET US NO.
ALSO MATE WHILE YOU ARE THERE CAN YOU HAVE A LOOK HOW MUCH THE SPRAY BARS ARE IN YOUR LFS?
THERE TO GO ONTO A FLUVAL 405.
THERE IS NO RUSH MATE DONT GO OUT OF YOUR WAY TO DO IT.
I HAVE PAY-PALL SO PAYMENT WOULD BE NO PROBLEM AT ALL.
