ARE THE Icecap K3 Hangon skimmers any good and will they fit a 125 gallon tank. I do not want to use a sump due to space restrictions and added expense >Thanks!!!

They are not horrible, but it is not close to having a traditional in-sump skimmer. There are DIY AIO kits, but I haven't seen one for a tank larger than 75g. You may want to consider a Tunze Comline DOC skimmer. It isn't cheap, but it provides effective in-tank skimming in an attractive piece of equipment.
 
Thanks BUT THEY look cheap IMO opinion. The plastic looks flimsy and I would have to pay 500 dollars for something that may be good but the plasticity concerns me!

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

    Votes: 13 28.9%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 13.3%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 6 13.3%

    Votes: 11 24.4%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine
