Hey,
I have a 65G with no sump (running a cannister for a year and half). Decided I may add a protein skimmer, and as such would need a HOB as I have no sump.
Looking at the Reef Ocopus classic 1000 HOB. Read a lot of horror stories about overflowing. Wouldn't want to drive anymore OCD I have into this hobby. Have Reef Octopus changed some features and added better safety for this issue ove rather years?
Any other HOB skimmers who have better safety features? Adding a sump at this point is not an option. Was looking at bubble magus but I'm unsure if it'll be able to fit as I have a hood top bracket where the glass top sits on that i think would change the dimensions of the skimmer or not fit properly.
