Has anybody had any experience with either the Kent Nuatilus, or Turbofloater skimmers. I'm looking for a new (new to me) skimmer for a 180 that will fit into my stand which is only 25 nches tal.

I know Matts skimmer will blow these away and I will definately be looking at his when I have more room available.

Thanks

Actually I just sold a Berlin turbo a couple of months ago before the thought of the new tank came into being. :roll:

I'm still debating wheather to make the stand before putting the tank into place instead of using the one that it came with. If so this weekend will be busy again but skimmer height won't be a problem any more.

I bought the HUGE Turbofloater, it is in a post in the vendor forum. Still haven't hooked it up, but the Turbofloater product was highly recommended. They also sell a Turbofloter "Baby" and "Shorty" that may work for you?

Yeah, I've seen the other turbofloaters. I just haven't ever heard any feedback from anyone using one. I remember seeing that huge monster in that thread, like around 6 feet tall or something. Let us know how it works out once you get it up and going.
