Anyone new out there?

I have a SK201 w/the 5000 pump, and haven't had any issues with it. It's very quiet and skims better than I expected it would. I am running mine in 4" of water, but I think 5-6" would be better.

I can easily fill the cup in 3 days, though after readjusting the water level to it's current 4" (was at 9"), it took a week to fill. I will definitely be cleaning it more frequently going forward, as my wife didn't appreciate her office smelling that way.

My last skimmer was an IN-240 with a Laguna pump on it (modded it). It doesn't skim "that good," but this skimmer is more suitable for my 150g tank, and it is much quieter than a Laguna 1500.

Any way... 2 thumbs!
