Brad - yes, re-circ'd is what I have done to G5. You have PM
Cheers.

Really, controlling flow rate is one of the big reasons why one might choose a recirc skimmer over a non-recirc skimmer.
Given the limitation of the size, I would be inclined to try decreasing flow rate for increased dwell time. Playing with the flow rate a bit is certainly worthy of experimentation for sure.
Plus...if you wanted to increase the chamber size, you can have my old G6 body if you like.
