Rate your skimmer

[chwkreefer]

I am curious to know what skimmers you all are using. Please reply and just mention the size of your tank, the type of skimmer, skimmer pump and rate your skimmer. . . . . fair, good, excellent.

eg. 72 gallon, RSB skimmer, Rio 2500 good

Like to put a bigger mag on my skimmer.

Precision Marine CV-426 with a MAG-9 on it.

Excellent skimmer. 33 gallon tank.

Ok, well.

120 gallon reef, knop hang on :rolleyes: , RIO 800RVT

Good skimmer, pulls out black skimate, it's just that my tank is to big! Expecially if I want to start stockin it. Darren has a better skimmer than me on a 33 :rolleyes: :(

Man I would love to get a new skimmer. Sump is gonna be running in about a month. Anyone out there selling a nice sump style skimmer?? :D

135gal (but 200gal total) Klaes ATK Junior with mag 7. Works very well but venturi seems to clog too easily.

ETSS 800 Gemini duplicate. 300gallon reef loaded!
1200gph titanium shaft silent pump. Nothing touches it, hands down!!!

Stephane,

How did you build your DIY skimmer? It looks pretty cool. Do you have any design drawings or schematics? It seems simple to make and looks like it works very well!!!
