Bubblemaster skimmer availability?

[mavgi]

the skimmer will perform more better with the time , from the picture on your tank you don't have a lot of bio load , now it's the time to start to add a lot more :lol:

mavgi,

right now, the bioload is:

3x bartlett anthias (1 large, 2 medium)
2x chromis (medium)
2x cinnamon clown (1 large, 1 small)
1x purple tang (medium)
1x lineatus wrasse (small)
1x laboutei wrasse (large)
1x candy stripe hogfish (x-large)

(Sizes relative to species length.)

I have a bannerfish isolated in the breeders cage.. my cinnamon clown nearly killed it. I will have to return it to the fish store. I will be adding 6-8 longfish cardinals shortly.

i thought a lot less , it's not bad and you can add a lot more small , the problem it's the aggression .
the true in my 120 i have 17 fish + 2 mandarine + 5 shrimp some medium some small and the skimmer work part time after feeding it's pull the junk and then it's more lazy . at the begin it was skim a lot but the water in my tank so clean that it's not work to hard. i am afraid to add more fish because aggression for space in the tank , but this skimmer perform till today great.

which model would work on my 75g medium/heavy bio load tank but also be a good skimmer on a 180g when i eventually upgrade?

The BM200 should be more than enough. It can easily handle up to 200g heavy bioload and 250g normal. You may need to tune it down for the 75g for it to perform well.

Im beginnig to notice some of this aggression, now (hence the bannerfish in the cage).

I forgot to mention my 2 large cleaner shrimp who are both pregnant.

I hope that my threadfin cardinals are not bothered by anyone, because if they are, im in trouble!
