Aquamaxx or bubble magus skimmer?

[willietang021]

Hello all, I am setting up my 225 and I need a skimmer. I am looking at the aquamaxx cones q-3 or the bubble magus curve 9 plus or the bubble magus curve D9. Sump size is not a problem. It is going to be mid to heavy bio load eventually. Please give me your input! Thank you!

As quiet as a skimmer can be....noise is not an issue...

I had the Q2 and now the Q3 on my 180 and its literally set it and forget it.
I've had a lot of different skimmers and this is hands down the best one I've used.

I have the Q3 on my reefer750. Best skimmer I ever owned.

Do you have the newer version?
I have the newer one and they solved the problem with the bubble plate blowing off. They used a collar with a set screw.

I love this skimmer!!:dance:

Thank you for all the inputs guys! I did tons of research and after hearing your thoughts I put in the order last night for the Aquamaxx Q-3, when it was on sale. Thank again
