They "work fine" for some people, but those people are usually people who haven't owned anything better. Once you've used a high quality skimmer you never go back. The SS didn't flood my floor, I've seen enough flooded floors from them to know better than to buy one. But thanks anyway!

I second the euroreef. They're the only good skimmer without spending like a grand for a 200 gallonish tank. The bubbleking would be the king though .

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.
