Comments: I purchased this skimmer to replace the Aqua C Remora. This skimmer is much more efficient than the Remora but is more sensitive to water level changes. The bottom line if you want something that does an ok job but requires no adjustments get the Remora. If you want a more efficient skimmer that pulls more organic componds out of your water get something with a needle wheel. This skimmer is probably good to about 40 gallons. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

mmmm, smelly gunk! by THOMAS WIGLEY

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 2/5/2008 from MINNEAPOLIS, MN UNITED STATES

Comments: I have been using this skimmer for almost two years. It is installed in a sump. I have had mine overflow once. I had the adjustment set wrong, once I fixed that, no more overflow. This skimmer has some flaws, one no drain on the collection cup, two touchy water level adjustment. I empty the collection cup weekly, when I do a water change. The only real problem that I have with this skimmer is that the air inlet gets calcium build up in two to three weeks and has to be reamed out. Other than that, this is a great skimmer! I would recommend it. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Nice skimmer by BEN

Comments: I have had this skimmer hob set up for several weeks now on a 30gal reef. I amazed at the amount of smelly dark skimmate that this thing is removing from my aquarium. While it was difficult to assemble, it took only 24 hrs to break-in. I was a little disappointed with the alignment of the inlet and outlet tubes. I have not seen the overflow issue or the difficulty in adjusting the skimmer that other reviewers are describing. I would definitely buy this again. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I've read some negative comments on this skimmer. I haven't had much of a problem with it. I'm currently running this on a 47gallon TALL tank HOB. It pulls dark stinky junk outta the tank. yes, it does create a degree of micro bubbles in the tank; usually only when i do a water change though. So it isn't much of a problem. For the price, i think it is well worth it; especially when you're new to the hobby and dont wanna pay $400+ for a protein skimmer. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Great value by PL

Comments: I was have time diffecult time keeping the pH stable in my 24 gal Aquapod and decided to try a skimmer. I did a hang on tank install which would have been simple if I didn't have a UV unit, power head for the nano-chiller and pump for the filter already in the sump. This unit is EXTREMELy touchy so go easy when making adjustments to the bubble level or you will end up like I did with a wet floor. The good news is the water chemistry has never been better, all the reef critters are happy as clams and I have been able to cut down on water changes. I followed the advice given by other reviewers (after the over flow incident) and have had zero problems. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Great skimmer by Kevin Fleming

Comments: Takes a while to break in. More than the 72 hours like it says. Spews bubbles out into the tank like crazy until it breaks in. After that it has worked fantastic for me. Easy to empty and clean cup. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Needs Overflow Modification by Old_Fish_Man

Comments: This is a great skimmer that produces a great amount of tiny bubbles that remove waste fast and would be a fine skimmer on a 100 gallon tank. Needs an overflow tube if used as hangon. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
