I'm still pretyy happy with it... eventho I've been neglecting the tank a little (ok, a lot) over the summer.

I know this is an old thread guys, but I'm thinking of buying a 180 for my 90 gal reef.....I was going to get the 250 but at 31" tall there is just know way to squeeze it under my tank.

Any additional thoughts on them? Everyone who bought one still satisfied?

My In-180 was working great and I was very happy with it's performance...

There's only one reason I'm not still using it and it was my own inexperience when planning and building my stand...I didn't leave any room for height adjustment, I put the skimmer in the dry sump, measured the height, built the stand to give myself a coulpe inches to remove the collection bowl...that was great until I put water in the sump and found the water level in the skimmer chamber was 11"s high, the skimmer needed to be in about 8.5" (sweet spot) of water....Ok raise the skimmer....Ooops, no more two inches of clearance to remove the bowl...So it was either build a new stand, replace the sump, struggle every time I needed to remove the cup or get a shorter skimmer....I chose the latter and replaced the skimmer...


Shameless plug, but that skimmer is still FS
