Trying this Again, 250 Gallon

I dunno about the 1.5 version atb skimmers, i had the 840 on my 90 and it was a monster. Cleaned my system to the point i was lucky to get yellowish water as skimmate. I cant see how the same skimmer just with the ability to take it apart to clean better will perform better. Thanks for the lite info, i have 4 white bulbs total on my ati...gonna swap 2 out for another blue and actinic and see where that takes me.

No problem....I went through a lot of bulbs to get the combo I liked.
yeah the skimmer I have is the small, and the 8.5 deluxe is a taller skimmer, with a dual bubble plate, there is less turbulence in the skimmer body because of the bubble plate, and bottom section, its like an inverted cone bottom.
