Tunze 9001 placement for RS Nano Max.??

[BD80_YNWA]

Hey Reefers...

Sorry in advance for another newbie lame thread...

I have the RS nano max setup. The stick skimmer was ok although tad noisy and bulky. I was hoping to remove it for added space and peace..

I purchased the highly bragged about Tunze 9001 for it as told it was silent and fits in back chambers ok.

I have the stock light and power supply thingy still on back and I've noticed it's a rather tight fit and a tad annoying as you have to move whole skimmer to get the waste cup off..? Seems a headache to me.

I was wondering if you guys have this same skimmer and system and what the trick is please.. I'm almost ready to bung stock one back on the tank..

Thanks all..

From what I remember a few other Red Sea Nano users went with a different skimmer. If you search a bit you can probably find one of the threads.

My skimmer in the max nano runs very quiet. It took a couple of months to do so but other than the space it takes up I had no complaints. It was however a pain to set the water level and air ratio just right.

Now that I'm thinking it is a pain to clean cause you can't really get inside the thing.
