SIMPLE Proven Skimmers are the best.
Not much to dial in, except when doing something weird to cause as Overreaction.
These TWO Legacy Skimmers, that have been with me for over 2 Decades.
-> (4 Impellers replaced in Original Pumps).
-> Easy to Clean
-> Easy run a Outside Air Line to Each to help with PH.
- One Runs 90 Gallon Tank and the other a 110 Gallon Tank.
- Not the Craziest fish load, but about 10 Medium-Large Fish.
- Fully stocked with Corals in the 90 Gallon Tank.
- I feed a lot and many times a day. Doesn't matter how much the skimmers adjust to load/feeding.
- HOLE DRILLED in Waste Cup for EXTRA CAPACITY (when away from home on vacations)
Few years back I made a dumb decision, thinking I could improve things with a modern skimmer.
It barely came close to skimmage extraction. I put It and the EuroReef, running side by side in same sump.
Really tough to tune. Never used the viarble speed Apex 0-10Volt Feature.
And after 2 years of on and off use, broke last Week (Pump Siezed)
I know I picked the Wrong Brand, but not sure it would really matter when comparing with a EuroReef.
