skimmer

I recently came into a bundle of equipment of which was a new in box Skimz sv227. I am running a 90 gallon with what I would guess to be a heavier bioload. This skimmer is rated for 170 heavy load all the way to 300 gallons on a light load. Is my system far too small to run this skimmer? I am...

I currently have my eshopps nano skimmer in the left rear corner of my fluval evo 13.5g, and in the past it has been collecting gunk but I haven’t had to clean it out for a while now. I’m wondering if it is actually picking anything up now that I have a wavemaker flowing towards the opposite end...

Noticed my skimmer wasn’t collecting much lately so I took a peek…. Probably been 2 years since I cleaned the neck. I know, I know, it should be part of my regular maintenance, but I just hate doing it and my tank doesn’t seem to mind too much. Anybody else a chronic skimmer neglector? What...

I have a 36” LifeReef Skimmer currently powered by a GHL Flow 9 (made by Sicce - looks to be same as Sicce 9 ADV/SDC). This pump does not seem to power the Venturi skimmer at the high end 80% very well at all. Pump is rated for 2500 gph. I get a varying rate that wreaks havoc with my skimmate...

I’m pretty new to protein skimmers because I have a nano tank and haven’t had the need for one in the past, so I’m confused on some things. I got the eshopps nano skimmer and was told to not let the bubbles overflow, so I set the water level low. But aren’t the bubbles at least supposed to reach...

Hey, In the process of getting a skimmer and was wondering if an octopus 152-s would be too big for my tank ? (Red sea reefer170) It’s a cracking skimmer but I don’t want it to be too overrated for my tank. A lot of people seem to run a BM curve 5 on the 170 tanks and the octopus is rated...
