I was using the prizm for my 3ft tank previously. Worked well for me. churned out quite a load of skimate. Pretty silent too. What advice in particular are you looking at?

my concern is abt the noise of the motor....heard from the forums that it could be quite noisy....

my tank is 3 by 2 by 2....

tik of getting it...any idea of the price ?

If you leave the air vendor without an air control, then the noise is approx 20 DB. Is that noisy...subjective. Been using 2 of these for my quarantine tanks and to me they are ok.

Use for your 322 tank may not be enough. That also depend on your LS stockings.

Hi, if you are gettng a brand new one, you may wish to look at the selling section for second hand deltec skimmer which i think is better. For the prizm, you can buy second hand and the price ranges from 35 to 120.....(came to know one senior had sold for 35...rare chance....lol)... usually is from 70 to 100.... Brand new one should be ard 200 or higher...

Do get those with surface skimming type. Better for your tank. All the best.

      Thanks for all the queries and it is overwhelming. I decided to close this thread for now to better structure how the decomm is going to take place progressively. Sorry that I may not be able to response to all and hope to seek your understanding that this will have to be carry out in stages to minimize disruption to the livestock.
