So, I bought my JBJ 45 used which came with a Remora HOB skimmer w/ maxi jet 1200. It works fine for the most part. Not much skimmate even though I see it bubbling. At most a dark tea color with the neck being dirty. I don’t ever really remember it really filling up. It is very touchy. I’ve been debating the idea of “upgrading” it to the Tunze 9004 DC. What do you all think?

Personally, I think it might be too small. I have one on my 25G.

Really? That’s quite a price jump to the next model and I’m not sure if it will fix in the back of a JBJ 46 AIO
