Do you have aibohphobia? I just think it’s hilarious that the term for an irrational fear for palindromes is a palindrome.Palindromes make me queasy.
I’ve also only used AC skimmers, but you still adjust the water level in the skimmer with a valve don’t you? I thought the dc pump adjustment had more to do with changing the air input more than setting the water level.I ordered and am excited to have a DC skimmer vs the gate valve control.
You say irrational, I say perfectly reasonable.Do you have aibohphobia? I just think it’s hilarious that the term for an irrational fear for palindromes is a palindrome.
Perhaps that is a different phobia.You say irrational, I say perfectly reasonable.
Looking at the skimmer pictures it seems like you use the DC and air intake to adjust the water level. My current one uses a giant 1/2" gate valve and it is noisy and causes lots of micro bubbles in my sump.I’ve also only used AC skimmers, but you still adjust the water level in the skimmer with a valve don’t you?

It might stem some from Sesquipedalophobia mixed with some form of a Panphobia with a hint of Phonophobia thrown in for good measure.Perhaps that is a different phobia.
No you adjust the water level with this knob and it changes the opening size.

Right, but I currently have a Reef Octopus 150 with a 1/2" valve that is no more than half closed for me to produce the skimmate I want and the rest is just released back into the sump at a very high rate which causes bubbles and noise.No you adjust the water level with this knob and it changes the opening size.

I did the free trial for their nano pump and Tom was great to deal with.For those with any doubt that @IOAOI is a legit company that does what they claim, here’s my pre-skimmer review, customer service review.
So I’ve been in constant dialogue with Tom @IOAOI from day one and I was notified right away when the new model became available. Came on the kinda slow boat from China but it got here when they updated us that it would.
Now im a skeptic at heart and the process requires us to pay for the skimmer in full, then they’ll refund the money. This might be logical and a normal practice in the US but as an international customer, albeit with frequent visits to the US, the exchange rate is a killer so getting back my money was a priority. Lol.
I had lots of questions and Tom responded with patience and in a timely manner. I hope they keep this up. I ordered the Skimmer two days ago and just now received my refund when Amazon finally marked that it shipped. Amazon has to ship before @IOAOI
gets our money released to them it seems. Either that or Amazon was slow.
I also had some Customs concerns that were quickly dealt with. All in all, my experience has been good so far. Hopefully this continues.
Now it’s time to get this Skimmer in hand and put it through its paces. I had asked about ozone capability and it isn’t a feature of this model but there are models that support it.
I’ll post the skimmer review when I feel I can be most objective.
