How did you like them or dislike them?

Was the collection cup easy to take off and clean?

I love this skimmer. I have it on my 200/g and it's pulling so much stuff. It could be used internal or external, plug and play, very easy to use.

The cup comes off very easily. It's also very efficient, pulling around 40/watts plus the feed pump is just a MJ1200.

My plan is to add more fish so I'm upgrading to a bigger Deltec; my APF will be for sale soon.

That's just the skimmer model number APF600. I have no clue what it stands for?

RR,

I maybe looking to but grade my skimmer since it has been stated a couple of times that your skimmer capacity should be double your tank size. I would like to see your sump set-up and maybe buy the skimmer depending on price.

I have an Elos sump which is bigger than your usual sump. The skimmer has a small footprint, skimmer is under the equipment for sale forum as of now, you can stop by the house to check it out, I live in Katy.
