Default Skimmer Kings 8 footer again
Well yes its happening again. Myself and Tammy bought another house and will be moving to a 4 level split. Tammy has told me that she wants the 8 footer tank back into the wall. She likes how it takes up no room. Wow i was shocked to hear that. but this one will be cool. i will have a L cove for the tank and it will be viewed from the front and the side. thinking of a rear end over flow, and probably will need 2 more MITRAS for the lighting.

it will be 96x24x24.


oh Ya you know what that means......

Any thoughts on a Skimmer. I think I'm leaning for a External either a Deltec.
A insump will be a Vertex 250 or a BK

what are your thoughts

Perhaps a good time to gain some experience with a DC version. BKs have them now or if you can find one a RLSS.

I would recommend asking our resident skimmer expert, The Skimmer King. He'll provide you with all the skimmer information you'll need!

Oh and also..
