rsaavedra July 20, 2006 Share July 20, 2006 I'm going to be upgrading to a 75G with a 30G/40G breeder sump and 5G refugium. I am confussed by the ratings of ASM and ASM Skimmer. G2 ASM Tank Rating: 200 gallons Our Tank Rating: 110 gallons G3 ASM Tank Rating: 250 gallons Our Tank Rating: 180 gallons Not so sure why the company rates them that high and asmskimmer.com rates them lower. So i don't really know what skimmer will be the better option for me, if I buy from ASMSkimmers.com I plan on the gate valve mod and the recirculating mod from them. Does anyone has any of this skimmer with or without the mods, please post some experiences. Raf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartbreak July 21, 2006 Share July 21, 2006 If you can fit it in your sump (the recirculating mod makes it have a larger footprint) then go for the G3. I have one on my 90, works pretty well without any mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhoch July 21, 2006 Share July 21, 2006 Raf, I've got a G4 with the gate valve mod... thinking about doing the recirc mod, but just haven't gotten the guts up to do it.. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave I've been using a G2 and a G3 on 2 set-ups with no mods. Been happy with them. tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhoch July 21, 2006 Share July 21, 2006 For all you ASM users the gate valve mod which is very easy to do is a MUST HAVE mod... It really helps you finely adjust your skimmer and how and what it pulls from the tank. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
