Anyone with a smaller tank.. I found a
skimmer on a budget. I have been using this with great results and it is only $14 shipped. Link. It may take around a month to receive but worth it.

I also wanted a way to hook up a co2 scrubber, assembled one today. About $45 invested. I’ll let you know if my ph increases in this thread. The small but workhorse Tetra Whisper 10 is powerful enough to run the co2 scrubber and skimmer optimally with no valve adjustment. Just raise/lower the skimmer to get it dialed in. $5 from Petco. Everyone else was sold out.

I also purchased another skimmer for $8 that arrived today, it has suction cups and would be better for rimmed tanks. The $14 one above is ideal for rimless and has an overall slimmer design that fits nicely in the AIO rear sump. I’ll share the link for the other skimmer here.
