Smile Re: Hope to contribute

Thanks for the comments. I will try to answer all questions, I am from Italy originally now living in NH. The SPS tank is kept under 432 watt T-5. The skimmers are my passion, I love to make them perform better. The 2 skimmers in my gallery both use the Enkamat mesh for the impeller, and both were fine tuned to the tank/bioload. I am very happy with the results.
