I my opinion there is no such thing as "overskimming".As long as the return is not delivering air bubbles back into the tank, I say "Skim On".
Keep your eye on your water elements and top off daily, your water will be crystal clear. Thats something we strive for! TinMan

i think you know what im going to say......

let's put it this way, i just bought a 24g aquapod, im thinking of putting a recirculating n.w. skimmer rated for 100g on it.

 

[joshinjosh]

haha alrighty, i just purchased a schuran jetskim 150 for my 55g setup, hopefully that will turn out alright

its fine. I have a 250g rated skimmer on my 75g tank.

that is a great skimmer! make sure you run it with the eheim 1250

 

[Skimmy]

wait!! i was thinking of the jetskim 100, i think the 150 already comes with an aquabee pump, never mind.

did you just buy it on ebay?? if you did them you outbid me

i've got the css220 on my 55 w/ 30 sump, it does well, though it keeps getting clogged with algae, need to get a sponge over the intake

I have a skimmer rated for 75g on my 10gal nano and my fire and ice zoas are multiplying like crazy.

Good Luck,
