Re: Skimmer for 25 gallon tank.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
Its about dang time.!!!! I know someone gonna bash me(Biff)but the smaller Prizm will work or an Aqua C Nano for HOB.If your setting up a sump then you can go with a bigger skimmer. I was thinking of using this on a frag tank(29GAL.) in the future.never use it but may try.....ViaAqua Multi-Skimmer - Marine Depot - Marine and Reef Aquarium Super Store It reminds me of a Skilter which scares me though but it looks like it would save some space.

Re: Skimmer for 25 gallon tank.
I run a mesh modded prizim deluxe on my 30 gal reef and I love it. If you go with prizim I would mod it, it runs ALOT better that way.

Re: Skimmer for 25 gallon tank.
need to make some corrections here. Just ran some calculations on the dimensions of that 25, turns out I was misinformed....it's not a 25....it's a 10...

Re: Skimmer for 25 gallon tank.
10s ok.You just have to keep a closer eye on your peremeters.Plus when your ready for the 75,you have a great little refuge thats done ready and the 75 will be alot easier.
