i'm not good at recommending a better skimmer 2 u as i feel tat almost all skimmer r the same(statement excludes those higher-end skimmers like beckett, H&S, Eaqua.....)
i once used a red sea prizm, prior 2 buying i tot it shd b a good 1. but it skims too slow n too little.
i bought a 2013 2 'chiam si dong' after selling off the prizm n b 4 making a good upgrade. guess wat, it skims real good n up till now still very happy with it.
today i juz went 2 a reefer hse n looked at his sps tk. it was like 'wwooooww' the moment i saw it. he is oni using a marco n yet can keep his sps beautifully.
think i'm getting a bit long winded..

To me, you guys who's willing to help are never too long winded. The more you talked, the more I learn. Btw, what pump are you using for your 2013?

i'm using a 2000l/h atman pump. might going 2 DIY the impeller into a needle wheel type n c if the performance will b better. sooner or later i'll do a upgrade if my few frags of acro show signs of success.

Like this? You know how to do it? Can teach me? And is it true that only Atman pump can be modified?

yessss.. trying 2 find the right material at the moment. i hav yet 2 try it so i'm still not qualified 2 teach u.

not sure abt other pumps but atman confirm will do.

i had juz modified my MH n guess the needle wheel will be next.

I think Octopus Bay at Roxy square selling the impeller. You can try your luck there if you are keen to get one. But DIY will be more fun.
