Hello all,

Im in the process of building my first frag tank system. The tank is 28" x 28" x 12". I am going to try to mirror my main system as close as possible. For that I am going to use a Radion Gen 3 Pro and MP40. I was going to use an MP10 but the acrylic is to thick. My return will me the Vectra L1. I know its over kill but I will turn it way down and if I ever go with a bigger frag tank I will be able to use the same pump.

The one thing I want to try is a different skimmer. I love my Vertex Omega 150 and was going to use the Omega 130 but I've always wondered about different skimmers. Im looking at the Nyos 120, Deltec 1350 and the Bubble King Double Cone 150. What are your thoughts on these skimmers? Would you say that are equal or one is head and shoulders better?

Once I settle on a skimmer I am then able to order it and build my sump off of it.

Any and all input is welcomed!

Thanks!
