Have a skimmer I bought ?

[takoarm8]

Not sure what I have here and what the capabilities are. Was tip toeing into a tank 5 years ago and bailed out. Won this at I think was reefapalooza.

Any info would be appreciated? Would this work in a 180 gallon sps tank

Is there any name or model on the skimmer body or pump? If so, Google it and see what it's rated for. This will give you a starting point.
Fwiw, since you've already got it, as long as you're set on the sump, you might as well try it and then upgrade later if needed.

Might be a vertex, maybe a omega 180.

Yes, a skimmer. Also a reactor of some kind behind it.

Measure the skimmer body, height & neck and it will give an idea of capability.

Yeah looks like a vertex. They look to be no longer a company?

Skimmer is vertex omega 200i

Skimmer is vertex omega 200a

Seems like the perfect size for a 180.

Can’t find many videos but the brs reviews say beat skimmer ever or expensive paperweight
