Hell0,

Any recommendations that will fit on the chamber? Thanks!
 
I used an aquamaxx hob1 skimmer but as with all hang on skimmers they're not very good

Good buddy of mine has one of this and working well.
I would like to own one but I prefer that one that would fit inside the chamber. Thanks!
 
The 9004 will only fit in the water overflow section of the rear chamber.An you have to install it side ways in the section. You face the intake teeth section of the skimmer towards the center of the rear chamber. That is the only way it will fit into the rear of the IM 40.
 
I have run all listed... I now have a Cad Light. By far the best for the $$$! In my opinion.
 
I run a coral box 150 skimmer in my 30L and works great for $60
 
I've been running a reef octopus hob 90 for a few months now. Easy to get setup and adjust. Pulls out tons of junk. Change the cup every few days.

Does it fit inside the chamber or hang on? Thanks!
 
Reef octopus hob(hang on the Back)
 
I have the aquamaxx Hob -1 and am very happy with it, took a week to break it in but now it does the job just fine. :)

It's a hang on the back. If you plan on having two overflow compartments and say a reactor in another compartment this option won't work. It's going to take up one compartment for the return and the intake with my ato and heater take up another.
