Yeah it does. I had the same problem with my Deltec ap850 so just raised it up and it was fine.

What is the height of the output tube? I want to use the skimmer external but my sump is pretty tall, and I won't have room in the stand to raise the skimmer if the output doesn't clear the sump.
Can someone measure the height of BM160 drain tube from the ground to the bottom of the tube?

It's about the height of a 20gal Long tank, so about 12".

The box the skimmer was shipped in was little on the lightweight side, but did the job. The Octopus skimmers I received in a lot nicer box and packaging. The skimmer and pumps were packed with shipping peanuts and een though the skimmer had a plastic bag over they still seems to get in all the pipes. Here are a few pictures
Check out all the peanuts in the output pipe. They were fill in the entitre pipe.

120G
30G Wet-dry
HOB fluidized bed skimmer
18W Turbo twist UV (Coralife)
Coralife needle wheel skimmer
i am thinking about upgradig the Corlaife needle wheel to the Bubble-Magus Nac-6 that Cadlights is selling. what do you guys think? i heard some good reviews on this skimmer and i have bought lots of stuff from Cadlights, so i know they wont just sell any product without knowing its great.
