Nice Skimmer by BRIAN MIELNIKOWSKI

Comments: I'm new to this hobby but it does'nt take a scientist to figure out that the skimmer was pulling out a brownish liquid/froth withing 4-5 hours of installation. That's the goal to get the gunk out. Fit in my sump perfectly. Really easy to set up & clean the drain out. Very happy so far. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I bought this pump because of the reviews of the Remora. All this skimmer is is a in sump version of the very popular Remora Protein Skimmer. Please go with the maxi-jet 1200 upgrade as the rio pump will work but for larger tanks the maxi works much better. Setup was easy, just connect the pump, drop the skimmer in the sump and off you go. Finding the exact footprint of this model was hard, as many sites list it as a 6x6 inch square. Not true. My own measurement is 6x5 inch including the maxijet pump. You can get creative and possibly get it down to 6x4 with rotating the pump in a different direction. Also note that the water exit level is 12 1/4 inch high from the base of the unit. I had to build a platform for the skimmer to sit on so the water could exit properly. All in all this is just one awesome protein skimmer. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Great little skimmer! by CAROLE

Comments: I have had my AquaC Urchin skimmer for about 2 years now and it has performed flawlessly! It is so easy to use...all I do is empty the skimmate from the drainage bottle several times a week , then once a week I wash the cup and lid out. So far I have not needed to do any fiddling or adjusting...it just runs like a dream! Alot of "serious reefers" cant believe the great water qualityI get with this "little" skimmer. I recently got a bigger tank and I need a skimmer for a larger tank....I'm definitely going to get an AquaC Urchin pro! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Awesome skimmer by MICHELLE HARRINGTON

Comments: I just got my skimmer today. It took not even 5 minutes to set up and start. This skimmer started pulling gunk immediately! AquaC Urchin is a very well built skimmer, it's slim design fits perfectly in my already tight sump. My old skimmer had to be set up outside the stand which proved to be very risky not to mention that it wasn't hardly pulling anything out. This skimmer definitely out performs my old skimmer. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
