Which Octopus Skimmer should i get?
Hi guys. Care to give me your views on this?
Lets say if both NW 200 and DNW 150 are the same price , which will you choose? NW 200 will have a bigger chamber vs DNW 150 smaller chamber but recirculating. I cant make up my mind as to which is more important. Chamber size or recirculating. |

The NW200 is going to skim more. Recirculating skimmers usually give you about 20% more skimmate, but a 6" body compared to 8" body is going to give you a lot more skimmate.

Is there a mod you can buy to turn it into a recirculating?
