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..

I got me a Vertex in 250 this winter and I'm liking it. Only ever tried a SRO2000INT before this one, so not a lot of experience.
I wish the water adjustment was a gate valve like the SRO instead of that miter cut on the pipe.
