I have to agree on the somatic 60s. I have one on my 75 gallon and it does an amazing job. Only complaint I have is it's not dead silent, but the noise isn't terrible. It took about a week to fully break in, and once it's set it doesn't need to be fiddled with.
Are these Somatic 60s skimmers finnicky to tune like some other Vertex skimmers I've read about?
It looks like it uses a modified Sicce PSK 600. I wonder if a stock psk600 could be used a sa replacement pump if it becomes difficult to source the Somatic Sicce down the line? Anyone have an idea of wha the Somatic replacement pump and impeller cost?
