NW110 skimmer question
I have the NW110 Protein skimmer for a few months and recently upgraded tanks to a 200 gallon system and have yet to upgrade the protein skimmer.
Recently I have noticed a lack of production in a fairly heavily stocked tank, so I was wondering if a better pump is due. Wanted to know if it was possible to just replace the pump with a bubble blaster HY-5000. Also if I would need any adapters as well? Thanks in advance for your recommendations. |

That skimmer is way undersized for a 200gal and can only upgrade the pump to a bb1000 which is not going to help you in you situation.
