Hello everyone! I’ve been having issues with my protein skimmer that I cant find anywhere online. First off, I'm not collecting any skim. The foam only moves up about 2 inches from the water line (pictured below) I clean it out regularly but that doesn't seem to be the issue.. I’ve had the tank...

I started a few weeks ago a 75 gallons with the idea of make a Reef tank with very few fishes (2-3 fishes). It is a regular 75 gallon Petco rimed tank. I install the AIO Fiji box kit. This box has a space designed for the skimmer of 5.3" by 7". Can someone recommend a skimmer with dose...
I have a 75 gallon that’s ran on a fluval fx6 canister filter and I’m looking for protein skimmer recommendations. I do not have a sump. I am well aware a sump pump is a better option than what I have however our stand size cannot accompany one. I do not need a lecture telling me to upgrade to a...

Hey all, I am in the process of setting up a reef tank. It is a 135g with two fx4 canister filters. I understand the issues presented with canister filters, but I had them from a freshwater set up and wanted to use them. I understand a sump is preferred however I’m going to use these filters. My...
Up for sale is an Aquamaxx ConeS Q-3 protein skimmer. I had purchased this unit a while back for a 220 gallon system I had, and frankly the tank bioload was never heavy enough for the skimmer to pull out much. It works well, but this is definitely more ideal for a 300-500 gallon tank. I ran this...
Okay,where to begin...
I'll give you guys the little story of the process that went by until now. I have a Bubble Magus C3.5 Protein Skimmer and I can't get it to stay consistent.
At first, my water height was to high, so I had to raise the skimmer about an inch up with some PVC under. But...
Hello coral friends.
I'm in the market to replace my aquatic life 151 skimmer for my 13.5 gallon AIO.
The two I'm interested in are the Ice Cap K1 Nano skimmer ($100), OR the Mag tool nano skimmer ($75). Please don't respond with "you don't need a skimmer", just ignore and move on.

I recently bought a protein skimmer and turned it on, Ive read that it can take a few days for it to break in and during that time can cause micro bubbles, which is happening.
Video of the micro bubbles
As soon as the bubbles started one of my clowns went crazy and swam to the corner and now...
Hello,
First time reef aquarium - looking for some advice on lighting and protein skimmer for a IM 150g Lagoon (47.3” x 35.4” x 19.7”).
Protein Skimmer: I was looking at the Reef Octopus 150 (is this big enough? Or do I need the 200?) but can’t tell if classic or regal will do. Or if any other...
I bought the IM skimmer for my 50 Nuvo after reading a few reviews. Is it supposed to be this loud? I’ve never really ran a protein skimmer before.. thanks!
Works great. Has varios pump and a float switch in the collection cup for auto shutoff. Missing the silencer because I was running the skimmer right into a CO2 scrubber and I cant find it but they are cheap to replace. Prefer not to ship. Here is the link to the skimmer if you want more...

i have an issue with my sump. it is a 30 breader with a filter roller, and a protean skimmer. My problem is with how the roller the only place i can put a fuge down their is under the suspended roller. is that something that would work ? i also would be removing some biological blocks to fit it...
Curious about if I need my protein skimmer for my 20g IM Nano. I have a media filter and a filter sock on the tank, wondering if having a skimmer also is overkill? Would it make my tank too clean? Would I be better just running my media and sock?
Xflo 6-3.5 Protein Skimmer. Rated for 400-600 gallons. Excellent construction and easy maintenance. Can be installed in the sump or external. I had it external and connected to a manifold.
Hi all,
I am getting back into the hobby and have an older ATI Powercone 200is protein skimmer that I would like to use however it needs a new pump. The expected total system volume is ~100-140 gal.
I was looking at the Sicce PSK SDC series of pumps for a potential replacement though I am not...
I have a reef octopus 1000 hob and it just started making this weird noise, any ideas what is it, what's causing it, and how I can fix the problem?
Thank you for looking!
Hello,
I have a pretty heavily stocked 100 gallon tank (dt is 100 gallons from manufacturer, plus 34 gallon sump), and I'm looking for a new skimmer. I have a trigger 34 sump with a roller mat and essence skimmer in the first chamber and chaeto in the second. I'm thinking about upgrading my...
