I need help deciding which one. I like the XFlo but have never used it before. It would pair with the Vectra pump. It’s a lot costlier though. But I am also leaning towards the regal 250sss heavily. Inputs are appreciated. I do like the Venturi skimmer like the old days. I keep going back and forth for weeks now. So got to pull the trigger soon for Black Friday. The XFlo isn’t on sale either. Thanks.

Looks like you got a good sized tank - congrats! For me, I would buy the biggest skimmer that I cannot afford or fit in the sump! :)

Thanks! I got a new Waterbox 190.5 a few months ago but reused the skimmer from the old tank I had before moving. It’s keeping up but not enough air draw. Each of these maxes out the whole space. I have to move my carbon reactor to fit them all.
