Hi!
I need help to decide which one i should choose. Anyone?
(The price of the BM NAC9 is half as much as the ATI PowerCone 250).

Its all on you there rated both at 500g and yes the BM NAC9 is cheaper only $350 to $499 for the ATI 250 cone . Its up to you the new wheel on the ATI look cool if you can aford it go for the Ati

Hi!
I made a decision and bought the ATI PowerCone 250. It's really good-looking. So I do expect much for this one.
Do you guys think it's a little bit overkill, with that skimmer in a 90 gallons?

Anyway, thanks for reply everyone! =)

yes the 250 is way to big for that system, i have a 80g total water volumeheavy stocked and plan to go with the 160, maybe the 200 at most

But is it dangerous?

 

[NYreefNoob]

not dangerous, but the problem with going with a way over rated skimmer is it will run solid for a few days ten as it has caught up and passed it just doesnt seem to run consistant, gettig a skimmer apropiate sized will work alot better then one way to big and really think the 250 is way to big, if they havent shipped id see if they can switch out for the 200
