Need Skimmer Information

Has anyone here ever used the Red Sea Prism hang on skimmer. I was going to run skimmerless on my 45 but if that one works ok I might use it.
I'm limited to size. Any others that you might have tried that you liked or disliked let me know

Thanks

I had one for a while on my 40 and it worked well. It was a bit trickey to get tuned initially, but once I got it dialed in, all was good.

I used to have 2 Prism Pro Deluxes. One on the Reef and one on the FOWLR. POS IME. I now have EuroReefs. 100X the skimmer the Prisms are. I realize EuroReefs aren't HOB, but there are good quality skimmers that are HOB. Such as Deltec for example. The point is spend the extra cash and get 100X the skimmer than a crappy Prism Pro. JMO.

Cheers,

A less expencive but still good choise would be a Remora,or Remora pro.But if at all possible go for an insump or inline skimmer.Like a Euroreef
