Anyone use Aqua Medic Turboflotor anymore?

From the reviews I have read about this skimmer, the T1000 to be exact, the only problem people have is with the instructions. Anyone have or had one and how did u like it?

I have 2 of them sump model and HOT model. I think they do a great job but I am not sure how adequate they are for larger tanks; even though they rate them for up to 150 or 200 gallons I think.

Well I am looking at skimmer options for a 90 sps system and I was kind of intreged by the fact that the skimmer could be fed directly from the overflow.

Theyre nice, but I think its too small for that size. I've got one sitting on a shelf. Its only a 4" by 20" or so skimmer. Thats tiny.

I'd go minimum 6" tube skimmer for a 90 sps.
