How's the DC pump? Do you ever find yourself adjusting the pump speed?

Do you guys believe the ratings of what size of systems these can handle. There have been many past skimmer that people have found out where way over rated.

Just more food for thought concerning the ratings. When you look at these using the same dc pumps and even more air the ratings are a lot less the rlss skimmers.

well for me theres a few. one is upgrading since these skimmers are rated for such a wide rating and the body small i am going with a dc skimmer for 75 g cubes and if i upgrade i just turn it up to a faster speed, i havent had a chance to put this to use yet but we will see.i use a r10-i at the store on a 400g system and its outperformed my expectations so far. the variable speed also helps tune the skimmer i know if i run it on a low setting say speed 2-3 and i have an issue with a bubble tip ending up in my powerhead then having the ability to turn my skimmer up helps alot as well. the amount of air and water these take in massive , so if i am treating with something that requires extra oxygen in the water i can take off the top , turn up the rpm's and increase the amount of air. cleaning the skimmer neck is easy with a 10min feed push button that doesnt need to be pushed again to restart. i like the fact that these pumps ramp up and down to speed so they have a soft start
