Anybody use a NW 200 Reef octopus skimmer?

[cracker]

Hello I just picked up a 2nd hand NW 200 reef Octopus. Was looking for insight on this particular skimmer.
I hear they are pretty good. The pump works fine but the impeller was missing needles. I have one on order. I went to coralvue and brs was looking for more detailed insight. Thanks, Brian

I choose that skimmer on my 90. Set it into a 40b sump. Amazing skimmer. Took a week or so to break in but once it did it was a beast. It's still on that system working great. Keep the new impeller clean & you won't have to replace for a long time.

Hello Frankie
WELCOME to Reef Sanctuary

Skimmers are so expensive and it's a mind struggle to buy one & take a gamble that it won't live up to skimming expectations.
I like reading reviews on skimmers as I am thinking of upgrading and not sure which to consider.
When it gets broke in Brian, do an update please.
