I found a My Reef Creations MR-3 skimmer on the side of the road last weekend. It appears to be on good condition as side from needing some o-rings.
I'm planning a 120-200 gal tank in the next few years. I know skimmer ratings are not an exact science and shouldn't be followed too closely but I'm worried this skimmer is way oversized. Their site does make mention the MR-3 is the same foot print as the MR-2 (300 Gal tank and 24 in tall instead of 500 gal tank and 32 in tall) with a longer dwell time.
Is this worth selling and finding something more appropriately sized or should I keep this one and or possibly modify it? It seems like a really well built skimmer...
