dnsfpl Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 depends on bioload, feeding, tank maintenance etc etc ap600 in n 95g is definately not over skimming, in fact is a little insufficient to me my ap851 in 80g, chaeto doing fine, NO3 between 5 - 15 ppm cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member LaW Posted March 20, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted March 20, 2010 get the highest range you can spare for the event of misfortune. my skimmer is rated for 320-790 gallons but my net volume is around 260 gallon, my chaeto still growing well. so its really depends on ur load. so far im satisfied with overskimming rather than under or just nicely.
