Hi there,

I am not sure if to get this skimmer https://tropicalmarinecentre.com/uk/reef-skim-2-0-125nano-dc-3386 or the 250 model which is the next one up from the 125.

My tank is a 95 litre display and a 10litre rear chamber both of these would fit. I’m going to say my stocking will be on the heavy end once done. I am not sure if the 125 would be able to keep up. Even though it’s rated for 125 litres

Thanks

I find that most companies rate their skimmers for a light stocking; bigger numbers on the box look better to the consumer!

I think you’ll be happier with the 250 in the long run!
 
I usually upsize my skimmers. If you know your going to be stocking heavily, which means feeding heavily, I would suggest the next size up.
