    Where do you all have the best performance with your water level inside your Vertex In-100? I have been right at the base of the collection cup with the water line and get decent skim but wondering what everyone else is having success with. Thanks

    I had the vertex IN80 and had it in around 8.5 inches of water i believe. i have since sold the skimmer.

    i know its not the IN100 but it might help...

    Thanks for the input but I meant inside the skimmer not the skimmer depth inside the sump.

    Thanks, I always find my self second guessing the water line wondering if I would get better performance a little higher or maybe a little lower, lol.
