i am looking for a skimmer for my 55 gallon and i was wondering if this was a good skimmer, i would like to kno the pros and cons of this skimmer compared to others and what u would suggest or use

any help is appreciated (sp?)

The thing about the Berlin skimmers is that the venturi is very inefficient. It requires a very powerful pump to operate. I ended up replacing both of my berlin skimmers with different ones for this very reason.
If you do go this route, run it with at least a Mag 9.

what skimmers did u replace them with?
