Best Skimmer for 75 Gallon
Hi folks,
I'm currently running my Eshopps PSK200 on my 75 gallon with a 25 gallon sump setup. I'm looking at replacing my skimmer with a new one and looking for some feedback as there are so many different options available. I'm looking specifically for an in sump model with a smaller footprint. Anyone using a skimmer they love I would like to hear. Win Boxing Day coming up I have been looking at various skimmers on reef supplies and JL Aquatics. I'm running a primarily LPS reef tank with heavy bio load (full of beautiful fish :D ). If anyone has a skimmer that is working well and would recommend it, I would love to know. Thanks for all the help fellow reefers. :biggrin: |
I'm running a Bubble Magus NAC 3.5 which is hardly enough for my Reefer 250. I've shopped around and for a small footprint the Nyos Quantum 120 is quite appealing. They're based out of Europe but they've entered a distribution contract with the more familiar Ecotech. Pretty much the same degree of quality and I've heard really good reviews from their products though they don't come cheap... https://www.marineexperience.ca/coll...rotein-skimmer

I've been doing some research as well, I have a PSK100 I am generally happy with, but I am upgrading tank size and will likely need a replacement at some point. I like the look of the IceCap skimmers, they use the same Sicce pump as the Eshopps, which is a good pump. Reef Octopus spave savers look pretty nice too, along with the Nyos but they're obviously pretty pricey and aren't actually reviewing all that well from what I have found on other forums.

They are very new, they have only been out about six or eight months, so that's likely why you're not seeing a ton of reviews. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh...cecap+skimmers |

I have the Icecap K-120 on my 65 +20L sump. It's pulling out dark skim at about 7 1/2" water height with 5 fish and I'd say higher than average feeding.
Very quiet, pulls about ~49w and has a small-ish footprint as well if that matters. I've never used another non-nano skimmer, so I can't comment on alternatives. I've been happy with the purchase, construction quality is good. |

Kyl how is the adjustments on the skimmer? How was the break in period? |
