What brand of skimmer
What brand of skimmer would you use on a extra heavy stocked fish only 650g. Looking for a external model. Any suggestions?

skimmer
I would highly recommend something with a high flow rate such as an MTC dual beckett (HSA-3000) . I've onwed one on a 450 reef/fish set and it was awesome !

Bernie, I prefer the electrically charge pinwheel which further enhances DOC removal
 Ok on a serious note the MTC with the Mazzei injector is my prefered choice due to the fact you can control the feed rate.C Quote:

Having used the MTC HSA 1000 before, and considering one again, I'd not hesitate to recommend their stuff.

Yes , I agree the mazzei set up has more tunability compared to the beckett but for this monster 650 gallon fish set up, the dual beckett ,HSA-3000, for the price will not be beat for the performance it provides. |
