SKIMMER WATER LEVEL

[Ayan]

What should be ideal water height for Reef Octopus classic 150 int? Will it work for my new 6/2/2 marine tank? Please suggest..!!! ND PLEASE provide a sump design of 5/1.5/1.5 ft size sump

It should work with a medium bio-load. recommended up to 150 gallons, but you could still use it for your system. Most skimmers perform best between 7-9 inches under water. You'll just have to set it up and determine the best height for you setup.

I have that same skimmer. I've been running mine in about 8.5 inches of water in the sump and it's doing a great job
