Any recommendation for a good and reliable skimmer for my 244L 3 feet tank. DT is 204L. 

Narrowed down to

1. TunZe 9410DC. (Love the auto leveling feature)

2. Deltec

3. Nyos

All user experience is welcome. Thanks in advance.

Heard alot of good things about NYOS. The NYOS 160 would be perfect for your tank size.

Thanks bro. Have been reading and there’s no outright winner. Not helping that the brands I’m looking at all priced about the same. Faint. 

Looking at the eshopps skimmers too. Seems like value for $. Don’t know if any bro here used before.

do consider size, sensitivity and collection cup, apart from price, quality, power consumption, etc. in the past, few technologies ard for skimmer but now mostly depend on the skimmer pump. Ways to adjust are important. Sometime too many ways may not be good unless u are a technical n hands on person for fine tuning.

Agree bro. Not a very technical person. I had to tinker my skimmer daily for a while. It’s basically on dry skim now. Easily overflow or not enough air. Driving me crazy trying To fine tune daily after work.

      WIZARD WEB RECOVERY A LEADING EXPERT IN LOST CRYPTO RECOVERY

      I never thought I'd see a penny of my stolen bitcoin again. I had invested over $150,000 in bitcoin back when it was still relatively new and unknown. As the price skyrocketed over the years, my investment grew to be worth over $400,000. One day I went to check my wallet and to my horror, the entire balance had been transferred out. My heart sank realizing all those years of watching my investment grow had been wiped away in an instant by some hacker. I frantically searched online for any way to recover stolen cryptocurrency. Most advice said there was nothing I could do if the thief took proper precautions with the private keys. Then I came across Wizard web recovery - a new web service that claims to use advanced statistical analysis to track stolen bitcoin as it gets passed around different wallets. I was skeptical but filled out their online form, explaining when and how my bitcoin was stolen. A few days later I received an email from a Wizard web recovery analyst. They had traced my stolen bitcoin to a popular exchange where the thief had cashed out. By contacting the exchange, they were able to recover my bitcoin! I was stunned. I truly never thought I'd see that money again. Thanks to Wizard web recovery brilliant web tracking, I got back every last satoshi of my $150,000 in stolen bitcoin. It was an incredible feeling to have what I thought was lost forever returned in the blink of an eye by these blockchain recovery specialists via: wizard web recovery (@) programmer(.) net
