protein skimmer

I’m currently running an eshopps S-120 on my 130g system with a 90g display tank with what I would call a moderate to heavy bioload. A LFS near me has a barely used reef octopus 110SSS space saving skimmer for sale. The rating online says 60gal heavy bioload, 90 medium, 130 light. I would go...

Used Reef Octopus Elite 200-INT Protein Skimmer. I bought this second hand with intentions of using it for a larger tank. That tank did not work out for me and this skimmer is too large for my current tank (Waterbox 4820 Peninsula). I did run it and clean it. Everything seems to be working as...

Does any dc skimmer pump work for inside this or does it have to come from Red Sea and the ones they sell?

I have a Fluval flex 32.5 gallon with maybe 30 pounds of rock, 8 fish, a BTA, some sps but mostly soft corals. I have a bubble Magnus mini Q laying around and I was wondering if it would be possible to run it on this tank? The mini Q is rated for 20 gallons, I feed once a day, either flakes or...

So I just got this Hob filter/skimmer today and after all was setup and I plugged it in the cup instantly fills to the top with water? I have the air valve all the way open, there are bubbles being produced but it just shoots out the side back into the filter? Is this just the priming process or...

I recently purchased a reef octopus 250 EXT skimmer. My question is they have the output pipe “A” which is like 2 inch’s for height but my sump is like 6 inches of height. The plumbing is 1.5 inch pvc so getting it isn’t hard but will me adding height to the output effect the skimmer? I know...

Read many of the posts on here saying the NYOS 160 is as quiet as they come, saw a bunch of videos on youtube stating the same thing, the sight advertises “silent” and I’m feeling like I’ve been had. Hooked it up and no change compared to my redsea 300 (ac). Anyone else feel this way? Does the...

What’s going on! I kind of asked this in my build thread but I’m looking for a more in depth answer I guess. I’m trying to figure out which would be worth it… a decent protein skimmer or a custom media rack with chempure, purigen, filter floss, bio media, etc. i’m new to this hobby so I really...

Hi, My sump has a refugium and filter socks. Currently, the tank is doing well, but I hate changing and cleaning the filter socks. I recently tried using filter floss, but I noticed that my glass gets dirty much quicker and the phosphate climbed up. So, I'm thinking of installing a roller...

Hi Everyone, I have this Reef Octopus Classic 202-S Skimmer up for sale. It is in good condition with a few minor dings that don’t affect its operation. The lid to the collection cup has a portion of the foam “guide” missing from the bottom side, but this hasn’t been any form of issue for...

Tunze 9410 Protein skimmer. Probably the best skimmer I’ve ever owned. Upgraded tanks and it’s not big enough. $200 shipped

Hey All, I was cleaning my tank today and got to the last part which was my protein skimmer cup. I was wearing gloves as I do not even like to touch the cup when cleaning it. When I lifted it up, the gloves caused the cup to slip and hit the floor directly below me while I was looking down with...

This is my Reef Octopus 200-INT that was used on my 150 for about a year. Always did a great job and was easy to adjust. Just wasn't big enough for my new upgrade. $275 plus shipping. This will be kind of large so shipping will be a bit.

if you had the space for a external protein skimmer would you go for that or stick with one inside the sump? I can’t decide which to go with for my 180g w/ 75g sump. The sump is in a room next to the tank and there’s plenty of room for a external fwiw
