I have one on my 120 gal. I switched from Vertex IN-180 and I am very happy with it.It has been about 2 months now.It is completely silent ,you can't hear the pump running at all and it pulls tons of dark skimmate.Very easy to adjust and with its unique output it doesn't produce microbubbles at all.

I have heard some bad things about these skimmers one guy has a bad pump and no C/S so he is looking for a new pump. SO I would do some searches for bad C/S faulty pumps.
I believe that the last one was the smallest skimmer they make.

An alternative would be the Warner Marine MF 201. Basically the same skimmer but customer service is good.
