I found a fluval PS2 skimmer on FB for $20 brand new in the box and thought it wouldnt hurt to throw it on my 12 gallon setup.


It's a DICE AIO 12 by maxspect. The problem i have is that the chamber isn't wide enough to hold the skimmer with any of the brackets that hold it in place, so it sinks down or tilts.

I was wondering if anyone has come across this and done a DIY to get it to stay in place. I've tried filter floss without success and was considering making something out of eggcrate to hold it at the right height.

TYIA!
