Hey everyone. I have finally come to the conclusion that some of the issues I am having in my tank is due to size skimmer I am running. The BM Curve 7 is rated up to 240 gallons and I am running it in a 50 cube with 60 gallons of total water volume. It is quiet and works perfectly. I think I need something smaller for my system and this beast is just keeping my water too clean. Purchased brand new from Marine Depot in December- January. Looking to trade for Bubble Magus Curve 5 or sell it for $250obo.

Let me know

Thanks
Kevin

Here is the info from the website
