It seems everyone loves their euro reefs, I may have to drop by golds to see if they have a decent sized one in stock thanks!

I got what I can afford...anyways there are much better skimmers out there. To answer your question. I tend to set my skimmer to produce dry skim. So there isn't a lot of volume. I find because I use ozone I don't get a lot of skim anyways.

i have the 220 on one of my tanks as well.
does ok but like most skimmers, have to keep it clean for it to work well.
as far as I am concerned, does a good job for the money.

if you can afford the euro, go for that for sure.

I found a super skimmer 120 used it cost 40 bucks!
From an American on reefcentral it cost 30 to ship..
I dont hava a full bioload yet but it has been making thick dark simmate and my nutrients are zero no flooding b/c It has anoverlofw drain at the top of the collection cup
If you can afford the better skimmer do it
but if the new project is breaking the bank you can go for a long time with a super skimmer untill you start filling your tank with SPS.

I just replaced my crappy thing with a RS 100, wow I can tell you that that thing is definitely worth it! Too bad there were no 135s in calgary, I tried almost every store.
