Good thing about this skimmer is that it uses DC pump as well low wattage consumption :) can control speed of the pump also( but i guess most of us will Max out the power yah?) unless when it is over kill for your sump and water keeps spilling over the collection cup, in this case then i would lower the speed ? correct me if iam wrong :)

Skimmer has a really small foot print as the pump is inside the skimmer also notice that pump is inverted, supposed to fully utilise the skimmer body to achieve more air contact?

The great thing about DC pumps is they don't vibrate as much as AC, so they are much more quiet.

Expensive & impressive pumps you have :):thumbsup:

Agree! :thumbsup:

Some Updates of the progress of my tank.

I recently purchase a MP40 and i am loving it, so far it is working well with my MP10, planning to get another MP40 and i will then shift my MP10 to the back center of my tank.
