Need suggestions on External skimmer for 750 gal tank
I have searched & cannot find a link to the recent article that compared all the new skimmers. Can someone post if you know of it?
I am leaning toward bubble king. All suggestions & EXPERIENCE with a skimmer is appreciated. Thanks Andy

Im going to use the sro xp5000 ext. on my lightly stocked 600g tank. I would look at the xp8000 for your set-up. Mike at Reef Specialty was a good source for info.

Mojo is someone on this site..... knows a LOT about skimmers
 you could do a pair of BK supermarin 300's? I am thinking about using one of these on my 475g. Jeremy from Premium Aquatics thinks the supermarins are the best skimmers they sell. Reef Dynamics could also probably make a skimmer for you. I think they have 16in diameter bodies & they could modify it to fit under your tank.
