Hi Techsan,
Not necessarily. Higher flow rate means there is potentially less contact time in the chamber and you could actually reduce the effectiveness of your
skimmer further. You can over-drive some
skimmers, however I am not sure if there are any mods or changes you could make to your Premier Systems model to make it more effective, would have to check the web to see. Manufacturer
skimmer ratings are notoriously generous, for a 75g tank I would look to double the recommended rating, e.g. run a
skimmer rated for 125-150g. Do you still have the old one you could use on this tank? would it fit in the
sump/fuge ? could you locate it outside the
sump/fuge?
Kind Regards,
