I need help on which skimmer to go with. Right now im using a SRO-2000 and have been thinking its time for an upgrade just dosent seem to pull out as much as I like to see. Below is what My maxes are.

Max height is 23" length max is 12.5 with is 9.5 max. Water level in my sump is 8.5". Is there an easy way to raise water level to say 9.5"? Only reason I ask is that it seems a lot of skimmers run at that level.

Would like to hear what everyone thinks about it.

Get a recirculating skimmer then feed it with a pump or pipe it direct from the overflow then you wonder need to worry about water level. Might look to see if das ex1 footprint will work or just put the skimmer out side the sump

I would look at the rlss R6i. it blows the socks off the 2000 and has a much smaller footprint.
 
If you want to raise the water level in your skimmer section, you'll need to add a 1" high barrier to the current baffle to bring up the water line.
