I am currently using a asm g4 on a 240 gallon mixed reef and I think it does a great job.
They do take up room in the sump and at times can be noisy but there are a few modifications that you can do to improve the performances and to quite them down.

He's not talking about the old school asm g skimmers. He's looking for a review on the new style like this

Yeah these. I cant find anything online. They dont seem very popular. Is it becase of the price or are they simply just bad?
Truthfully I couldn't tell u. It might b because the price or that the name of asm makes people think of the old school skimmers. Good luck finding the info your looking for tho.

IMO these consume a lot of power, and are very overpriced when compared to models from other brands which are $100 or more less. Also the sedra pumps are notorious for being loud. On top of that every inch counts in your sumps and this is at least a few inches bigger then comparable models. So what most people see "IMO" is a loud, expensive, big, power sucker. Not a winning combination. I know a few distributors and from what I hear they are not selling at all.

What draws you to it over other skimmers?

Has anybody owned one & if so how good is this skimmer? Or how bad? I would appreciate your personal reviews.
Hey, just saw this now!!!! I use a g4 plus. For the price it's an amazing skimmer. Mine always is filling with skimate. I'm very happy with it.

Here's the scoop...

ASM regular skimmer line is all US assembled in LA. Being that ASM is the sole distributor for Sedra, they use that pump brand almost exclusively on all their skimmer.

The GC seriers was introduced over 8 years ago as ASM attempts to break into the Cone/semi-cone style of skimmers. Unfortunately unlike most skimmer companies that do advertising and tradeshows. ASM does none of that and only deals strictly with regional brick and mortar places that don't really push online.

The skimmer works very well. Though the model is discontinued, the pump hasn't changed in 15 years so its readily available and warrantied.
