What do you think of this skimmer

I am on a budget and need a good skimmer for my 210 gallon reef tank. Is this coralife one a good skimmer??

Thanks, Jeremy

 

I used a Coralife super skimmer for 2 years and it worked great for me! That being said, they are not the best skimmers out there by a long shot. How much are you looking to spend? If you give us an idea of what you are looking for (i.e. bioload in tank, sump/no sump, etc.) and how much you are comfortable to spend then I'm sure we can help you out.

 

I just put in a sump so I would prefer to have something that will go in there, looking to have it well stocked with fish and coral so I imagine the bioload will be fairly high. Is it possible to get a good skimmer that can keep up with this for under 300?

 

You might have a tough time finding a skimmer that will keep up with a 210 gallon tank plus sump for under $300 maybe a good used one though.

 

UGGG, and I always thought the lighting would be the most expensive part.
