Anyway I ordered one already,cos my cabinet is only 22" inches tall,sk181 is the perfect size skimmer for me,just a little bit concerned about over skimed.
it's rated for 300 gallon with light bio load... so realistic number should be 1/2 of that. 150gallon for $500 skimmer sounds about right.

Having the extra skimming power lets me feed the the fish more often, and broadcast feed corals at night.
