Default New skimmer thoughts on pump thou
here is my question what pump would better with the skimmer I have 3 choices REEFFLO SNAPPER, PCX 70, PCX 100 I know that Becketts use raw power to run the skimmer forcing the water through the becketts. the 100 is 360w , 70 is 300w and the snapper is 98W
Im looking at the either the 70 or the 100 what are your thoughts on this the skimmer is 62 " high to for your thoughts.
now the snapper also has seals wouldnt this not work causing the seals to blow on the pump, due to the back pressure.....

You don't know as much as you think.
