    Well I may be wrong but I think that it may be time to look for a new skimmer. I currently have a vertex in180 and it is working but I dont think its very effective. Its very hard to adjust and I either get extremely thin skimmate or none at all.. It sits in 7" sump.. I have adjusted it ffrom the very bottom of the neck to high in the neck ..

    I am wondering if I decided to upgrade what I should consider upgrading to??

    The footprint of the vertex maxes out my sump and would like something with smaller footprint..

    Vertex 14" x10.5 x24" tall


    recommendations please?
