Unsatisfactory

Berlin air lifts are better by WILLIAM LONGAZEL

Comments: This thing has been a constant battle and pain from day one. Micro bubbles are continuous even after cleaning. Fish hang around on the other end of the tank away from the bubbles. It is hanging on the side of a 55gal. Poor mounting bracket. I have no idea what the bracket was designed for. It won't fit any of the several tanks that I own. CPR needs to go back to the drawing board on this one. Not happy with the skimming capabilities of it either. That is all I have to say. I am looking for another skimmer to replace it if the bubbles don't stop. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I wanted to give this skimmer a while to break in before I typed up a review. It's been two weeks with it running on a 29g reef in my office. At first it produced a great amount of micro-bubbles and noise. Though as time a passed both the bubbles and the noise have really dropped to an acceptable level. Also, even from the very beginning it has been producing a good amount of skimmate regularly. However, I did find that at first it was a little troublesome to get balanced on the back of the tank with only a single acrylic support bar (on the left). After filled it holds it's place though. All in all I'm glad that I picked it up. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Great

outstanding unit by matt

Comments: I use this unit on my 29g reef and it works very well. Never had a problem. On Initial start and after cleaning it will produce micro bubbles for a few hours even with the bubble reducer. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
