It's kind of finicky finding the "sweet spot". A quarter turn of the valve one way might not be enough, but a quarter turn the other way might overflow the cup. Just when you think you got it, wait several minutes to make sure. Just take your time adjusting it, and be aware that there will probably be a lot of micro bubbles at first, until it breaks inAny tips/tricks?
I used this one, it works pretty well. You can use it in sump or hang out on the sump. I hung mine on the sump to free up space inside the sump.I have a brand new Aquatop Xyclone that I will sell for $100. Purchased it but it ended up being too large for my tank.
I would be interested in this if the OP isn’t.I have a tunze 9004 I used for like 3 months laying in my garage you can have. $90 shipped
Could you explain what makes the Reef Octopus (or any Protein Skimmer) better than the Seaclone? I am still learning and figured that since the Seaclone is foaming up and collecting stuff, then its doing the job.My first protein skimmer that I ever bought 15ish years ago was a sea clone and at the time I thought it was pretty good. It wasn't until I upgraded to reef octopus that I realized how bad it really was.
I don't know a lot about skimmers for that size tank to suggest a specific one, but my suggestion would be to not go with sea clone. If that is the only one that is in the budget then it's better than nothing, but IMO anything else that has been suggested here would perform better.
