Looking for reviews: Vertex BK ALPHA 200 skimmer. Anyone have one? Would the 170 ALPHA be better for 180g?

How does it compare to ATB and WM Cone or BK Submarin?

Thanks!

go to RC, they had lots of pages review for this skimmer.

For 180 gallon, you need the Alpha 250.

Mojo is selling the Alpha 170 in RC, but I think it's too small for your tank.

go to RC. look in Premium Aquatics forums. They talked about it a lot.
200 is good for light load 180gal, but 250 will be good for high load 180gal.

If you want 250 one, wait little bit, I think David (Letsgotothezoo) will post his for sale soon. :)
