Skimmer recommendation for 800+ gallon DT?

r0cksteady · 02/15/2014, 04:31 AM

Hi All,

Planning a very large tank setup, just wondering what people recommend for 800+ gallons?

Need something that can easily handle the volume and at the same time is energy efficient.

I should mention I would like it to be an external skimmer so I can directly feed it from the DT overflow.

looks like you could float a nickel on that foam head. I wonder what pump and injection method it uses.
