I just picked one up last month for my 75g DT with 20g sump. It's stocked with a pair of clowns, 2 small Tangs, a goby and a dwarf angel. I also have a bunch of small frags. I don't feed too heavy and get about 1/4-1/2 inch of skim mate in the collection cup every 3-4 days. I'm very happy with it so far.

I have one on my 120 sps tank with 30 g sump. Great skimmer pulls tons of junk out and runs silent

I have one and it just really started working after 2 months. Its partially my fault for not leaving the thing alone. I kept opening and closing it all the time and trying to get ti just right. Not to mention that my water level in my sump was fluctuating a lot as well. Just put it on 10-11" of water and leaveit it on max for a day and let it run, it needs time to break in and then slowly start opening up from there. I also figured that I didnt have a big bio-load on my new tank and it would take some time to build up. I have 2 med size tangs, 3 chromis, 1 midas blenny, 2 clowns in a 90g. Lots of frags.
