Been using both of these IOAOI skimmers, I'll definitely vouch for them. The big one on my overstocked 120g replaced a simplicity DC skimmer. Only criticism is the controller isn't the greatest on the larger model but overall good bang for the buck!
I'll get some photos of them in action when I get home.

Thank you so much for posting. We'll have a new model of 120 to be released on Amazon in 6-8 weeks and we'll launch a free test.

We have a 65 gallon display in the children's area behind the lobby. We list the tank info next to each of the displays we have set up. If you send an info sheet along with the skimmer I can post it along side of the tank for out customers to view.

The review and pics below is from R2R member Reefer Matt.
For your reference.
This skimmer came quick and well packaged. Assembly was easy. In my installation, I did not have the required 7"-9" water depth in my sump, but I was able to modify the skimmer to allow it to work without much effort.
Adjustment on water height is tricky (you turn the whole skimmer body), but the included controller helps a lot.
Removal of the cup is to turn it clockwise, to install is counter clockwise.
Overnight, the skimmer began to pull skimate out of the water. I would recommend this to those that either hang it inside of their tank, or have the required water depth in their sump. If you purchase this, you will need to close the waste drain valve, as it comes in the open position. Pretty good.

45 gallon, it works great needs to be cleaned often to keep the pump running well, tbh it was a little big for my system bottomed out my nutrients running it before I had a proper bio load but allows me to run an ulns and be the master of my nutrients which I prefer. all and all i'm very happy with it especially considering the price, I paid less than 100 bucks for it. skims consistently and has performed well. biggest gripe is it does not fit on a rimmed tank and i had to put a notch in my rim to fit it, not that big of a deal but it was sold as a hob or sump skimmer which is true if you have a rimless tank.

What kind of instruction are you looking for? General "How to use a skimmer" or specific increasing flow, decreasing bubbles, etc for this skimmer?I'd be happy just to have instructions, for setting mine up! lol I got it going...but I am teaching myself vs knowing how to set it.

I would be interested in testing for you. I have a 40b DT with a 40b sump. 95% SPS. Currently using a Reef Octopus Regal 150 INT Skimmer that is performing great.
