Made in the USA, I love it already!
Awesome looking skimmer and it great to see that it has a gate valve. I have found the gate valves to be the best and easiest way to dial in a skimmer. | |

What's the largest tank this can handle with a "heavy" bio load? Can it still do 250?

Jon, any issues with start up and the Sicce pump? I have a skimmer that uses 2 of them now, and I have issues with one pump not starting after a power outage. Both use the pinwheels too.
I am still thinking of the K2, but I am shy with the issues I am having now. | |

I've never had a K-2 fail to start, not once.

Glad to hear that! The K-2 is on my short list... I have a cone by another vendor, got it used for a great deal (over $200 off retail) but it may be a little big for me.
I keep coming back to the K-2... K-2 and Alpha 200 are the 2 that I am looking at now. | |
