Used for 2 years on my reef tank, works great. I recently upgraded to a 170-gallon system, and this little skimmer tried its best to keep up but needed more horsepower for the bigger water volume. Just gave it a fresh citric acid bath—runs like a champ. Only flaw: the small clear tube for air...

Hello everyone I have a question about this skimmer. I picked it up used and I’m having issues since I took it apart to clean it. I put it back together pretty straightforward but it’s putting out so much bubbles in the sump. Idk if something fell out or maybe putting it together isn’t as...

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...

What would be a good skimmer to buy for the IM EXT 100? I had been previously looking at the Reef Octopus eSsence s-130 and classic 150INT skimmers, but I saw multiple people say that both of these skimmers can be loud. I'd really like a quiet skimmer, so what do you friendly folk recommend...

Hi all I have a reef octo protein skimmer up for grabs as my downsizing continues. This guy is rated for up to 400 gallons. It’s not your average protein skimmer. I bought it in March of 2024. It’s a powerhouse of a machine. Comes with all original equipment, including controller and float...

Hello! Selling off an Innovative Marine 24v Skimmer. I had it setup for about 1 month at my old place and took it down when I moved. Ended up upgrading tanks and getting a different skimmer so looking to sell this one off! Innovative Marine just raised prices on these bad boys to $180+ so...

I have a brand-new Bubble Magus MiniQ skimmer. It has never touched water, and the box was only opened to inspect the contents. I don’t think the skimmer has ever even been removed from the plastic inside the box. These are fantastic skimmers for small tanks, and can be powered via a USB port...

Reef tanks have been my life ever since I was 16 years old, but I took a 10year break from the hobby. As you can see I’m ready to dive back in. Everything that comes with this hobby evolves extremely fast… my question is, what in your opinion are the best lights to go on an 8ft long x 24in wide...

So I’m starting up a new budget build 75 gallon tank utilizing hob equipment. I already had a hob setup that was great for 7-8 years then all of a sudden aiptasia took over and that tank has never been the same, so I’m doing a restart with all new sand and Aussie live rock and ditching the...

Hello everyone! Can someone tell me how I should set the door and white knob up for the redsea desktop skimmer. Not sure what they do and the one I got did not have instructions. I am currently cycling the tank! I have the ATO and Pump running and a heater set at 77 as recommended by my LFS.

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

Hello all. I am in the process of setting up my IceCap 240 but have never run a skimmer before. All the videos of set show these large sump setups with lots of valves I don’t have. With this skimmer I can raise/lower the skimmer to adjust level and raise/lower the cup for air (I think) as well...

So I'm looking to buy a protein skimmer and I'd like a bit of advice as to which one to go for between the Bubble Magnus Curve 5 extreme and the A5. If anyone could give their experiences with them or and differences they know of that would be great. So far all I can really seem to find is...

Hello, I have a 120 gallon tank and once I have everything there and more nutrients I want to get a skimmer but I don’t know which one to go with. If you guys can give me your opinion about them I would appreciate it (reef adaptive looks the best BUT I want one with start delay)
