the skimmer i got is a via aqua SK 200

 

That Via Aqua SK-200 is a wide load!
Via Aqua Protein Skimmer SK-200

Looks better than their multi-skimmer.

Anyway, nice tank too..

the skimmer was wider than i thought when i baught it when i installed it i had to do some mods i had to trim the base to fit between my baffles in my sump i also had to empty my tank to install it as there was not enough room between top of the stand and top of my sump to fit it it was still half inch to wide to fit in that gap

unfortunalty i havent got any pics of it in action i can only just see how full it is where is sits lol the collection cup is a tight squeeze to get out too

im still fine tuning it, thats been quite a mission but i believe it was a good buy for its money i paid 150 for it (Aus) most other skimmers are $300+ :-/

 

*side note*
with my stand size alot of the more expencive skimmers that are for sale here dont seem to fit under it

 

I hear ya. Well hey, you got it in there. That part of the mission is accomplished. Now you can fine tune.

 

Great set up and pics. Luna
