Ah yes but no more than a multi pump octopus or some others. And if one is building an 800g aquarium system, I would think 200w for a good pump on a good skimmer, {built for $50}, is a minor thing.

Now a BK monster like Mike had with the single RD pump. Very nice if one has the bucks. Does Octopus now make huge skimmers with a single pump. I never checked any for sometime now but the large one at SWC had 4 pumps, which I,m sure would be close to any Panworld/Blueline to run a beckett.

Or how about driving it with a large but lower powered direct drive pump.Not pressure rated but I know many driving becketts with them.

But what the heck do I know. I only have a 30g tank.
