Do you have an ETSS? Every ETSS I've ever seen small or large has kicked major a**
Every Fish store in FL is running them. I just went to a guy's house a saw his installed and it looked like it was pulling cow manure out of the tank. maybe you have yours hooked up wrong.

I never mentioned a sump, just the skimmer...I try not to post about things I haven't used or seen in person. I ran an ETSS Reef devil II skimmer for about 2 years. I bought it new so I'm pretty sure I was able to set it up correctly, seeing how all you have to do is drop it in the sump and plug it in there's not much that can go wrong. Along the way I tried different things to make it better. Even adding a Becketts head and larger pump didn't help much. Its was a very touchy skimmer, it would stop skimming if you put your hand in the tank, did water changes, feed the fish, open a window, close a window, dust the room..
I've been doing this about 23 years and like your LFS I don't know everything. I do know about ETSS Reef Devil skimmers, their junk. The larger models are much better.
I've never seen an ETSS sump but I'm sure their worth every penny
I've just tried to help, what's with the attitude ?

Thomas, did you have something informative to add to this thread or are you just starting trouble
BTW, if your thinking about a Geo skimmer you better jump on it. George is back logged like you wouldn't believe. It took almost 5 months for me to get mine and I hear things are worse.
Oh, can you check my spelling for me :thinking:
