I have this skimmer on my 40g, but im looking to get a fowlr tank thats 120.

The skimmer is rated for 125g, will it work? Its a recirc skimmer.

Solbby ran this on his 120 reef and it did fine, but he also have a very good husbandry/maintenance routine. I would go with a more powerful skimmer if it were my tank, water quality would benefit greatly from it.

Agree with Jackson. Get the biggest skimmer you can afford.

I had this skimmer on a 90g before. It skimmed like a beast, but its relatively small collection cup made this annoying. I just felt that the collection cup was undersized for the amount of nasty it was pulling out. As I added more fish and started to feed more, I found myself having to clean the cup up to 3 times a week sometimes.
