Maybe over-ratted (like most of the skimmers in the market)? No clue, I am no expert in skimmers. I just google

Looking forward to your build thread for some new pics

The dc5500S pump flows 5500 liters or 1453 gals per hr & 2400 liters or 634 gal per hour of air which will be a turn over of almost 3 times an hr on my new system. Sounds pretty damn good to me & skimmer king.
