So, I'd like to get some thoughts on the Bubble Magus NAC8 skimmer. I'm considering upgrading to this skimmer. The footprint is perfect for my sump and it will be more then able to take care of my system. (120g display, 29g sump) I've never used them before and was considering a reef octopus SRO-2000INT as well. Any thoughts and input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have he NAC8 and love it! It's definitely a little oversized for my system but thats not a problem. If I were to do it all over again I would get the BM180A though. Same skimmer with a seamless cone body (the NAC8 has a seam). The seam on mine has not been an issue, but for the same price, why not?

To be honest though I might look to a little larger skimmer for your system.

Thanks for the info. I'll look into the BM180A, for the same price that could be a better option.
