Not a bad unit for the money. Positives: Easy to set water level (Like ASMs) Easy to disassemble and clean Bubble diffuser like much more expensive models Runs quiet Negatives: No drain fitting on collection cup inconsistent foam head Return pipe silencers are a bit tricky to set pumps run warm, raised temp 1 degree in 210 gallon tank

I have this skimmer and it works excellent. I use only 1 pump and it put out a lot of nasty stuff.

This is a kick butt skimmer. I have been very happy with the performance. Glad I bought it. The body itself was nicer than expected and the pumps very efficient. Definitely recommend.
