    Not a bad looking skimmer. I do have a pump that is rated at 700 gallons per hour, and it has the air intake on it. Thanks for the leg work Krish! I was also looking at the Berlin Turbo Classic. Dr Fosters and Smith have it for $199.00

    Seaclone 150...good buy?

    Thanks Krish, You are right. I should re consider the amount I want to spend. But, having 55lb of live rock and only looking to stock 10 or 12 fish, I figured I could get away with a more moderate skimmer. I will also shop for a used one posibly. Talk with you later.

    Krish, Looking to spend about $200.00. Plack, If I decide to go with a limited amount of corals, I would have to upgrade lighting. Not thinking of going with corals. Skimerwhisperer, I agree that more is better. I also have limited space. Could g with a HOB skimmer, but would rather put it...

    O.S.T or Hyposalinity treatment for ICK

    Hello gang! I am preparing to pull my White and Black Butterflyfish out of my main tank and put in a Q-tank and drop the salinity to 1.010 to treat ICK. I noticed 2 other fish also have the white spots. Can I drop my salinity in my main tank to 1.010? I have 4 fish, but I am concerned about...

    Protien skimmer questions.

    Hey guys! Ok. I have made up my mind to ditch the home made air driven counter current skimmer and purchase a venturi style skimmer. If I put it in my sump, I think for a 90 gallon FOWLR, I can get away with a relatively small one. Whether I put it in the sump, of hang on the back of tank...
