do you guys think the 220 model can handle my 210g tank with middium load
when you guys feed the fish or do the water change, does the skimmer turn crazy or lazy?
and how long does it take to back to normal
and is it really sensitive the water level
i'm going to put it in sump
thanks

that will probably not be even near enough for that size tank. theres a whole huge thread about your skimmer in this forum. you should take a look at it.
