So I am debating on which Reef Octopus skimmer to get for my system.
I have a 76g half circle tank with a 30g sump filled about 1/2 full, so around 90g of water total. The skimmer will go into the sump (no hang on or external as there is no room under my stand).
I do not know the differences between a recirculating and a normal skimmer, both seems to have a needle wheel which is supposed to boost output...best I can tell is the recirculating holds the water in the skimmer longer because it runs it back through the skimmer before pumping it back into the tank???
I am looking at these two skimmers, I would like some advice and input which you guys think will perform better. I am just looking for a good skimmer, without breaking the bank, and one that will perform quietly....thank you!
Just click the name to go to the site and read about it:
