Protein skimmer for 125g reef

[sparky5785]

Sro2000int is also a very solid skimmer for the price. The innovative design of the Skimz/Warner makes it a nice option. I have it in the same chamber as my return pump and get no micro bubbles out of the skimmer I to the display.

The SRO's would not work for me anyway they are too tall with a low operating water depth. Apprx. 6" or so.

I was comparing against the NWB-200 from Octo.

This is the only somewhat scientific skimmer study I have seen. According to the article, all skimmers work about the same - so so.

Bubbles are bubbles, I've read that too.

I have the nwb-150 and i like it a lot. It's picky on water depth and I think 125 would be on its high end. I think they make a good pump and the body has been solid. Mine has the gate valve which makes it easy to dial in. You can't go wrong with any of the ones youve mentioned and my experience is limited. I think sizing will be your most important decision.
