There's a thread on RC where people have gotten good performance by mesh modding them.

Here is the long thread about mod. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1053688

I had bad experience with marinesolutioninc, so I'd suggest stay away from them.

i have the recirc 150 with a gutter guard mod on the impeller and drilled the air intake hole slightly bigger....so far so good...30%-50% improvement on skimming performance..but i gotta say...witout the 2 mods....it performed moderate....

yea at first marine solutions sent me the non-recirc 150.....but i contacted them and they sent me what i payed for (recirc-150)and evrythings gravy...u can try other websites that has like aquacave.com
