JSTR Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Connie, THe skimmer is that an Aquamedic Turbofloater? I have one on my 90 gal, would recommend upgrading the pump to an Ocean runner2700. The pump and skimmer work well together. Tank looks great too. Can see many more happy trips to the fish stores before you get that monster stocked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
