    I've heard nothing but good things about the Vertex IN series. Well designed and they have a lot to offer for a very reasonable price. Good to see you getting good use out of it. Good review.

    I want to get a skimmer as well. I read about this skimmer on marinedepot and have read about many other ones. I am only setting up a 41 gallon. Anyone know if the 100 is overkill or would it matter? Bigger has got to be better? Right? lol

    Not sure if this question is for me but this is my first skimmer.

    Should be fine. There is no such thing as overkill on skimmers. ;D
