I have the MR-3 with dual Beckett's driven by an Iwaki MD-70RLT. The skimmer works great on the 225g, (pulls skimmate like crazy), however I have to warn you that the skimmer is quite noisy. If noise is not an issue I highly recommend it.

its not going to fit under the tank unless it's heavily moded...and we can't build a wall because of state code (gaaaaaay) so unless there's some miracle about to happen this is going to be a no go

then dont build a wall build a box that is removable ue 2x2 constuct frame/1/2 plywood walls and paint with lid on top to remove sludge cup and put a plant ontop of it for decoration beside the tank. put foam insulation on the walls to reduce noise. it is just a plant pedestal with skimmer in thebox
