hey as long as your happy that is all that matters, mind you i have been there done that with skimmers, lights , everything else. now I'm all about filling my tank with SPS and buying top notch gear. mind you when I had my ATI bubble master skimmer that was probably 2nd skimmer that i really liked compared to my BK 200. mind you the only reason i got rid of the skimmer is the sicce pumps werent a great pump IMO/IME, after a power failure they would not stat up again they had to be helped out abit.. other then that the skimmer was pulling amazing crap out of my tank...
they also have the BM 300 with 3 pumps that is a wicked skimmer too... rated for 750 gal. but I will have to check out the tanks when I come up, and help ya tweak that skimmer too. I may need a ride from the base to your house and i will buy the coffee's thou... is that is ok..

Doesn't matter how much you have been reading until you take the plunge.
You don't know as much as you think.
