    Here's a few models I have run. I have a test station set up at the end of my tank that allows me to run different pumps and skimmers. I also have another skimmer under the cabinet.

    Regards,
    Kevin

    Here is a picture of the SK4200 dual beckett with 12" extention Barr Aquatic skimmer I have been running since Dec. It is powered by an Iwaki MD100RLT that puts out 2000gph @5' head. I run the same model skimmer on my live rock tank at the store and have another one on order for my 450 (can you tell I like their performance? )

    Regards,
    Kevin

    I am running the same skimmer, but I don't have any nasty pictures, so I'm borrowing Kevin's

    Yes its big and its going to get even bigger i have decided to copy Kevins Extension idea i considered putting another injector on it but it was a major headache and the cost was obscene and there is the chance of damaging the box , I figured why not do a extendy jobby .Ill give her say another another 12 inches and ill be really happy with the look of her .
    Ps I am not trying compensate for any inadequencys in other areas.
