I am getting a Waterbox peninsula tank 7225. Display: 168 Gallon, sump: 42 Gallon.
Probably will be a mixed reef, not a huge amount of rock, Fish load will be normal.

Looking to get Nyos skimmer but not sure if I should go with the Quantum 160 or 220.

Anybody with experience could give some input?
Thanks
 
I have the 160 on my 185 & it works pretty good, mine took awhile to get it set right but one of the issues I have with it is the pump. It runs great but will not produce air bubbles when you restart it after cleaning. Eco-tec has been great to work with but after replacing the pump 3 times it still does it. The fix is to blow into the air line to the air control fixture. The pump runs great but doesn't start drawing in air to the skimmer body.
