Skimmer Recommendation?

tmccaff · Feb 22, 2024

Looking for a skimmer that will fit my sump or possibly HOB. I have a Red Sea MaxE 170. I currently have Tunze 9004 Skimmer, I like this skimmer but seems to small for my tank. I probably going to sell it. It is rated 200lph and I am guessing need more. My biggest footprint as of now in sump is 4" wide so thats my issue. I have algae scrubber in skimmer section of my sump.

I was looking at the

IceCap 250 or the 200. The 250 maybe too strong for my tank. Thoughts?

I don’t currently use a HOB filter on my reef tank, but I have in the past.

I have used a HOB on fish only or quarantine tanks, but not on the display tank.
