    I had a etss skimmer also. worked awesome sold it to a Club member I believe in souix city. I just received a life reef skimmer I am going to try out. Old school tech. I think there is still quite a bit of them out there but I don't think people get rid of them too often. If you read up on them there aren't any bad reviews on them.

    I posted a message asking if it is still available and how much to ship to Des Moines?


    The posting listed the price at $275 + shipping. So, I think it is a fair assumption that they will ship.
