After looking at specs I'm not sure If I can work with a Euro-Reef. The RS135 is 24"Tall and needs 6.5" water depth. I have 29" under my stand with 14" of water in my sump. That means the best depth I could offer would be 10 maaaybe 9 inches. The octopus recommendation that I found (tough to find one) is 10 inch water depth and the skimmer itself is 22" allowing for collection cup removal which gives me an extra 4 inches of head room.

Does anyone know how great of a difference the depth will affect my skimmate production if I do go with the Euro Reef?
Dustin - I was intrigued by the MSX and how It comes with your choice of a mesh or pinwheel
