The skimmer is boxed up right now and ready to be shipped. I just gave up fiddling with the skimmer after 10 days. Maybe I should have waited a little longer but I don't think I have enough bioload at the moment. The skimmer was skimming 90 pounds of previously cured live rock. My system is not up yet. I am still in the process of plumbing. If you have a sump with constant water level achieved by a precise auto top off, then this skimmer is perfect for you! I am going towards a used H&S recirculating skimmer which will sit outside my sump.
