+1 I'm about to setup the Skims Monzter SM163 DC Internal in my new 80G build.

I'm setting up a 203m in my 93 cube after I add 4 more fish for a total of 12... and maybe a few last have to have additions :-)

I've had the skimz sm201 for a few years now and haven't had any issues. I had it running on a 57 gallon tank with medium bioload and it worked great. Recently upgraded to a 93 cube so may need to upgrade once i add some more fish. Let me know how the 203m works for you spschief.

Ran the SM201 for a couple years. Great skimmer, no issues, construction quality was excellent. My only knock is the manufacturer ratings are super exaggerated... Go with BRS' ratings, they are much more true.

I know firsthand as I switched to a Reef Octopus 5000 skimmer rated roughly the same on the high end as the Skimz and it pulls out wayyyyy more skimmate. No knock on the Skimz unit I had, it was a beast, but now I can see personally that the rating the manufacturer put on it was bogus and BRS was on the dot with their ratings.

I have had one for a year and has been skimming great. It also is very easy to setup!

Ran one for a few years and they work very well. Build quality is nice and they have nice features with small footprints.
