I am using a bubble King mini 200 at the moment I need to clean the cup more often and probably clean the whole thing it has been some time I don't think it works as efficient as it used to.
if it works then stick with it. your tank seems to be doing amazing. but if you decide to change to a different one, sca 302 is a great skimmer. not sure on the cost of shipping to turkey but they are amazing skimmers. I use the sca 301.

The problem with camera is the reflection from the windows if I place it in the front. But thinking some solutions we will see. Open to any suggestions by the way.
Here is one, you may try to locate it "in" the water by partly sinking it, with help of a looking glass. Or, in case you use one of Gopro type of cams, fish eye, sunken downwards from top, with waterproof accessory, may result a fantastic experience

SO I want to ask and see what you guys think.
