Skimmer for 29 gallon

rhunt · 02/02/2007, 09:48 AM

Hello all
I am looking for a in sump protein skimmer for my 29 gallon tank.
I am going to put it in a sump.
Any thoughts on the Pacific Coast skimmers?

I have an issue with height under my stand.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've got a Euroreef RS80 on a little 29g and it does a great job.

I think kodyboy is referring to the Octopus Needle Wheel 110 protein skimmer (http://www.aquacave.com/detail.aspx?ID=750).

kodyboy,

How does the Octopus NW-110 compare to the D&D Marine Typhoon or other skimmers that you have used? Have you been able to do any side-by-side comparisons?

Thanks!

I have not been able to do a side by side yet (no cash). I hope to get a D&D term 2 in the next few weeks that is going to go on a 150 reef with an ASM G3 and then I can give a comparison.
Yes I meant the octopus nw110 by the way
