Doesn't Anyone use a Euroreef or ASM skimmer

will it work in 8" of water

 

Mine does

 

It does, but i would not go much less.
adjusting it can be a challange start with the recomended hight then adjust it A little at atime over a week or so. It is very sentive to the oils on your hand

 

thanks for the posts guys, I am also going through this same decision phase!

 

euroreef

Ive got a euroreef 5-2 it can be tempermental at times like all skimmers.Im considering a octopus 200 for my next tank looks identical to a er but much bigger reaction chamber 500+gph needlewheel pump(doent know about the pumps quality though )

 

I use an ASM gx1 recirc mod and am completely happy with it... it sits in about 8" of water. My favorite site about info, etc on ASM skimmers is www.asmskimmer.com

 

I have an ASM in my sump and i get a full cup of black skim every day. It works so well i almost vomit when i empty it. Its really that bad. I had to start using vicks vapor rub under my nose to empty the skimmate. Its the best bang for the buck.

 

I have a Southbay skimmer which is just like the Euroreef and I love it. Just plug it in and it works. Here is the link for it.
