I'm think I'm going to go with the proclear 75 wet dry for my 55 gal. But should I get the pro series with the skimmer built in or not. If not what skimmer should i get?
i have the 75...i dont think it works that good...or maybe i dont have a huge bioload with a small humu humu and a dwarf puffer, clownfish, and lawnmower

im pullin that out with only a small powder blue tang two false percs a mandrin and a royal gramma.
I just remembered to ask this. Are Aqua-line and Proclear wet/dries the same thing? Because they look almost exactly the same and the aqualines are all over ----.

the coral lifes ive seen sit inside but some don't
My coralife 125 fits inside my proclear but my wet/dry is either a 150 or 175. There is not much extra room, so I would check to make sure it would fit in a 75. Here is a pic. Great skimmer by the way.
I think the skimmer will fit because it said it was 4 or 5 inches wide when the sump is 8 inches wide. But if it didn't fit could i sit it outside the sump but just have the pump and returns in it?

The coralife can go either in the sump or out of the sump. IMO put them in the sump so if they do overflow you don't have a huge mess to clean up and they won't pump your aqaurium out of water.

same thing rebadged by certain e-gay retailers. but not all aqua line products are proclear. the skimmers and wet drys are. aqua line fuges and overflow boexes ect arent proclear.
