NAC 6 looks nice!

However, the pump in the pictures says 45.5 watt. its a bit on the high side though?

Thinking should i get NAC 6 or NAC7.

Thanks tunicate!

That two model is a little bit under size for your tank size i feel, and the pump is a pump from china as well which explain why for the high power watt.

Maybe you want to consider paying a little bit more for bigger model of the skimmer or getting a second hand from pasa malam section.

Happy hunting.

Hi guys,

Being awhile since I kept up with marine techs.

Think of upgrading my skimmer.

Any models to suggest for skimmer under $200 first hand?

Thanks in advance.

Tank is 3ft x 2ft x 2.5 ft

I got a 3 month old NAC 9 that I will sell I to you at 200. It is too big for my sump
