I have an unused Red sea RSK 300 protein skimmer. Looking to make some room in storage. PM with best offer! I have a bubble magus going strong and just dont need it.

I have a Fluval Flex 32.5g tank with the stock items. I now realize that was a mistake and I plan to clean out the tank and start from scratch. One thing I am thinking of doing is having the normal built-in-filter lead to an overflow for a sump (10g) that I plan to put under the tank. I would...

Hello R2R! I'm a newbie around here and about to set up a nano tank of 43 liters. I researched and asked many people around, but everyone said different things. Firstly, I could not decide on the capacity of the return pump. If I choose 1000 LPH, it means it turns 43 liters for 23 times in one...

Hello everyone, I would love the opportunity to pick your brains a bit. So I am in the process upgrading from a 54 gallon corner tank to a 125 gallon I bought off of Facebook. (Pictures to follow). I cleaned it up, drilled it, and modified the stand. I now have a 30 gallon three stage sump and a...

I have a new c-vue 45 AIO that I'm cycling, and would like to find a skimmer that will fit in the small space provided in the sump area. I will link a photo of each baffles dimensions. I've seen a lot of people recomend the tunze 9004, and while I know it's a great skimmer I've heard issues with...

Hello , I am returning to the hobby after a 10 year break. I am doing a small 36 gallon with soft corals and live rock and maybe 4 or 5 fish. My last tank I had a 55 gallon FOWLER with a canister and had no issues. However after reading this site I have learned that canister filters are no...

I have a brand new Reef Octopus Classic 110int Protein Skimmer for a Red Sea 350 total 91g volume. I’m wondering if it’s enough for 6-8 fish, but with 2 TANGS. I do 20% water changes biweekly and occasionally 3 weeks. Returning is a pain in the butt but should I upgrade for future benefits?

I have the Coralife protein skimmer that came as a bundle with my bio cube 32. I am getting a lot of micro bubbles and over flow . I’ve just started my Bio cube 32 …the skimmer has only been on about 7 days now. But my problem is I can’t get the airflow right, I either have too much bubbles and...

After a long debate and going back and forth between Waterbox and IM, I've decided to go with the 30L gallon with the white stand and I can't wait to get it (in 2 days!) - https://www.innovative-marine.com/shop/Fusion-Pro-2-30-AIO-Aquarium-w-APS-Stand-White-p222452188 I'm getting the spot where...

Hello, I know that there is a break in time for the protein skimmer. I was curious if there anything that I should be doing that might prevent the overflow of bubbles? Here is a picture:

I recently set up a saltwater tank that’s 140 gallons and I just set up my 40 gallon sump and took down my canister filters. I’m wondering on hearing everyone’s opinions on the best skimmer to get quality, best bang for the buck, esay to use, clean, etc. my price range would be about $300-400.

Question for ya'll - I installed a Reef Octopus s-130 protein skimmer about two weeks ago. My sump water level is at the high end of the recommended range, but still within it. I was told that bubbling over as it broke in was normal, but it's now been long enough that I can see it's skimming...

Any thoughts ? Had my tank for about 7 weeks. Just got a protein skimmer installed last night. At first I thought this was micro bubbles. But upon closer inspection it’s not. Any idea what it is/ if it’s normal? Been running for 16 hours. Wasn’t happening before I had the skimmer.

So I’ve been thinking a little about this with my establishing a feeding regimen for corals. It makes sense to start a tank of with a skimmer while you have fish and while building maturity, but once you get to that point, wouldn’t the space be better utilized to make the refugium larger? In...

Fairly new to the hobby and my tank has been running for about a month now and it’s truly my favorite hobby, but I don’t know how long I’ll last simply because of protein skimmers. That is the only thing that I have regrets about starting this hobby up. I have a Aquamaxx HOB 1.5 skimmer and it’s...
