Octopus NW skimmers

[gbtrain]

Would the NW-150 be large enough for a 75g tank 20g sump. I wouldn't say I have a heavy bio-load but a good medium( lol ). The skimmer section in my sump is 10" x 12". I know the NW- 200 would be the way to go but the foot print is 11" x 15" and I don't really want to tear my sump apart and redo it.

I would think that an RO NW 150 would be plenty for a 75.

I had similar setup and getting NW-150 then mod it. stay away marinesolution if you order your octopus.

I think that would be a decent skimmer for your setup. I've got one on a very lightly stocked 100g ( 3 shrimp, 1 med half-black Angel), feed sparingly, and it pulls about 1/4 collection cup of dark skim every 4-5 days. And its running in tank, no sump, where evap causes the neck to gunk up and degrade performance.
Excellent $150 purchase, before the mods too.
