I have a question about protein skimmers. I'm thinking about purchasing the new Sequence Skimmer the skimmer is equivalent to the Royal-Exclusive Bubble King skimmers. It sounds like a great skimmer and will fit my needs and then some. What I want to know is what are your feelings on gravity feed verses pump feed. I was talking to Joe (poknsnok) about this and he thinks it's a great idea- one less pump and I agree. I've talked to some people about the skimmer and it will operate either way. Is there any disadvantages of the gravity feed system?

After talking to Joe - the plan would be to have a Tee at the input to the skimmer - one going into the skimmer and the other as an overflow that would go directly into the sump. Any other ideas on this?
