Considering buying the IceCap K2-50 skimmer.

I'm considering buying the IceCap K2-50 for my 45 gallon cube, but wanted to hear some info, good or bad, from from anyone here who may have used it or is currently using it. Any info is appreciated.

I have one coming in for my ~40g volume frag tank. If you're not in a rush, I could give an update, or at least an initial impression soon.

Thanks, that would be great! I'm not planning on getting one until mid January- early Feb.

I bought it mostly as I've owned the K2-120 for over a year, flawless performance and great construction. It's going to sit in a 10 gallon sump, so I'm really not sure what to expect for performance as there won't be fish in the tank, but there will be inverts to be fed.

I will say CoralVue support has been very quick with my other icecap skimmer (K2-160). It arrived last week with the collar of the collection cup un-cemented, and when I noticed it on Sunday night during assembly, within a day on Monday they've already had a replacement cup shipped out. I'll try and keep a note to follow this up a couple of times.
