Has anyone tried using the Prizm Deluxe Skimmer in the sump instead of hanging it. In order to get the 4 inches below waterline requirement, my sump would overflow if there was a power outage (40 gallon tank/20 gallon Sump). If you can't put it in the sump then has anyone else had the same problem water level and have any sugestions?
i have recently gone against the flow and got a prizm 100gallon model cheap to replace an air driven skimmer i was using
in my nano. the water line is 2" below on my setup and it skims great dark and dry i think the 4" stated in the user manual is a maximum rather than a recomended water level, many people use them in sump as this makes them much less noisy the person i got mine off used it in sump on his setup

I messed with the baffle in my sump so that the water level on the skimmer side is about 2 1/2 inches below the edge, and it seems to be doing alot better. I have about a 1/4 of an inch of dark stuff in there now.
