Closed Loop?

anyone with a large pump that requires a 1 1/2" inlet go over the top of the aquarium instead of drilling a bulkhead for the supply water?

any pics?

thanks john

that should be enough for you to look elsewhere for the skimmer, just imagine what kind of customer service you will get if you needed to replace the pump a month down the road.

the niger trigger is reef safe as far as corals but may eat inverts, but i agree about the need for a bigger tank. i have one in a 210g reef tank and he uses every inch of the tank.
