I'd recommend the 220 for your larger tank. My 125 pulls out a lot of scum. The only problem I have is that there is a leak (micro bubble stream) from between the pump and the outlet. I called Monday 2 weeks ago and the manufacturer was supposed to be shipping me one the next Monday (1 week ago), but I have still not received it yet. Hopefully fed ex comes today with it.
And p.s.: fish.com has great prices, plus if you find it cheaper at another site, they'll even beat that price with the 150% price guarantee - that's how I got a great deal on my light setup. |
Skimmers are the most common area of confusion I have ever seen .. The Corallif is a good skimmer I still love and run the old Berlin Classic another great tested skimmer . People just overdo skimmers to death and few really have a grasp on how to size the skimmer properly . Their used to be a skimmer called Excalibur Small and $4$ hands down the best skimmer I ever ran.. on any reef up to 150 gallons 79.95 and pump included (: Now I'd have just pulled the skimmer and dabbed some glue over the leak LOL If its leaking where I think it is ? I think thats their weak link ?
Guy in Richmond at the shop there when they first started to sell that skimmer came in said Its leaking bubbles .. It was his second return and Scott was out of that 150 LOL I said hey do this and I dabbed some ABS glue and let it set and then a second DAB and that was 3 yrs ago ? But he never said it was leaking and comes in several times a month.. Scott took the skimmer home for his tank did the same thing.. If its the same leak place I'm thinking about
