Has anyone used any of these skimmer. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Think about getting this one for a 60 gallon now and being able to use it when I get a bigger tank.

I use this same skimmer and once I finally got it dialed in it works great. It took me a while but there were a few unexpected factors that came into play, some of which were my fault. Just make sure that you have the water height set right, and make sure you pull it out and give it a good cleaning every once in a while. If too much debre gets in the pump or needle wheel it will freak out and just overflow like crazy. I'm sure that's the case with any skimmer though. So that's chalked up to user error.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
