Weipro 2011 is too powerful for 2ft tank?

[Lawrence]

Dear All,

Can i asked if any 2ft marine reefer use Weipro 2011? How is the protein skimmer functioning cos I was told by a LFS that it too powerful & unneccesary for 2ft tank as it will take up all the good nutirents from the tank also!

Pls kindly share your experience & comments!

wha in that case invest in a good skimmer is a must because you are keeping corals go get the weipro 2021 is good enough

Well I personally feel the powerhead for the skimmer will look like a "tua lian kong" in such a small tank. Unless you have a sump or else alot of space would be wasted.

I already got a Weipro 2011 & just wanna ask whether those 2ft tanker who have this same model of PS to give some feedback. Thanks!

That was pretty rush my friend. The heat produce by the powerhead would significantly affect the temperature in your tank. Try to monitor the your tank temp. I once bought a 2011 for my 2ft tank and i sell it away immediately as there was no space in my tank to fit the PH. Well, maybe it's because there were too many liverocks in my tank. Oh well, good luck with your skimmer.
