Orca 25 Protein Skimmer

brownsugar · 12/04/2006, 05:28 AM

I recently purchased the Orca 25 Protein Skimmer for my new 32 gallon project (tank dimensions are 30"x14"x18").

Finally got around to emptying the tank was previously a freshwater tank.

Just wondering if anyone has had any past experience with this skimmer its an air operated version and i saw it in action at the LFS.
Claimed to handle water volumes of 200 litres approx 52 gallons.

Searched company name found Orca Systems http://www.protein-skimmer.com/
Not entirely sure if its the same company but how many company's Named Orca and produce protein skimmers are there.

Planning a Jauburt style Plenum Cavity with U/G Plates and coralsand etc.

I know the jury is still out especially of the effectiveness on a tank this small.

But can anyone help with the skimmer any past users?
