Will a Reef Octopus Classic 90 Protein HOB Skimmer mount over the top brace of an Aqueon 75 tank? The brace lip is approximately 1 1/8 inches and the skimmer drawing shows 1.1 inches from the skimmer frame and the defoaming device and the surface water degreasing cup. It looks like it would work but I would prefer to hear from someone who has actually used this skimmer on this tank before I order it.

I have the Hob-90 on my 90-gallon reef and love it. I think it would fit your tank.

Thanks for responding. I can confirm that the Reef Octopus Classic 90 Protein HOB Skimmer does fit on an Aqueon 75g. I ended up buying a used one, actually two of them. This guy sold me two units for $75.

That is a great price!
