Doing SPS corals and loads of fish with heavy food input. No problem, this skimmer can easily keep up with it.

Its flow rate can be controlled with the pumps outlet ball valve to accommodate the ideal organic level for your application. Lowering the flow rate increases the organic level in the aquarium. Increasing the flow rate decreases the organic levels in the aquarium.

The total height of the oxygen reactor/mixer is what accounts for its phenomenal performance. While its size cannot be hidden under a stand its skimming performance more than makes up the any inconvenience. While those of you who have struggled to maintain an under the stand skimmer know, that easy access to a behind or next to the stand skimmer makes it a breeze to maintain. And we all know that a clean skimmer which in turn equals a clean tank!!!!

Hi, no need to explain what this skimmer can do, I have the ETSS 1400 for 30 years and it's still running on my 500-gallon tank. Anyone who has been in the hobby that long would know that these skimmers are the flagship, this is a great deal, wish I was closer to the mainland, but then what am I going to do with another ETSS skimmer? By the way, Sanjay built his, only because it was very expensive back then, good luck with this great deal. regards Ken
