Wtb skimmer, lights, powerhead 07006

[Brando457]

I am looking for a few items to complete my 180 gallon tank fowlr. I'm willing to pay shipping or meet within reasonable distance.

1. protein skimmer for a 180 g tank with 75g sump heavily stocked. Preferably something somewhat energy efficient and a full cone or semi cone.

2. one/two powerheads for the tank in 3000/6000 gph range

3. water blaster hy 5000 or hy7000 return pump.

4. Kessil leds or similar to provide light for 180 fowlr.

5. Fuge light

If I think of anymore I'll add to the list, thanks!

Trying to save some money by buying used!

I think it isn't worth doing it to be honest, trying to be budget on this tank

What's your price range on the skimmer??

 

[Brando457]

New I was looking between $400 - $500, but used I was thinking like $300, depends on what skimmer I guess though.

Well on the market there are plenty of new skimmers out there, like the reef octopus 1000sss i think , and i heard warner marine has some nice ones as well on pacific east website

the 1000sss will be way too underpowered for a 180 gallon w/ a 75g sump, I was looking at the SRO3000INT, JNS SK3, and skimz SM201 all new are in the $400 - $500 range.

So watcha waiting for bro lol And pardon the 1000sss I was gonna get that for myself as a backup

I like the skims, cant spend the cash rt now. Def. A future purchase.

looks like i actually need an external skimmer due to height of sump from bottom of stand won't allow for anything over 7" OH:

Any recommendations?
