I've been doing some research on using cryptic zones in place of a skimmer and I'm curious how nutrient export actually happens. Obviously, with a skimmer we physically dump the waste down the drain. With a cryptic zone, sponges and other critters eat the dissolved organics, but nothing is...
I just bought this Sander skimmer, blueprint below, to use as an ozone reactor, because it was 80% off, 26 inches tall, very small footprint, and ozone-safe (Sander also produces ozonizers in Europe).
I've read Randy Holmes-Farley's articles on ozone, but it's my first time using it, and I'd...
Hey guys! So, in my previous post I talked about a red slime issue that was literally taking over my tank. A fellow reefer referred me Chemi-Clean. So I went on Amazon, bought it, read the directions (which included turning off my skimmer) dosed my tank, 2 days later did a 20% water change like...
DO NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL PUMP
Skimmer comes with all the parts otherwise. All screws, o-rings, plumbing, and tubes. It also will come with the bubble stopper and extra tubing. This is the older model with the original bubble plate diffuser. I will include the pump that I have with it right now...

My first reef tank of 135 gallons, together with the sump will be about 165 gallons of water. I am now trying to choose a skimmer for me. I really like the Nyos and I choose between 220 and 160 models. Some say that more is better, others say that if the load is small, it is better to choose a...
Hi all,
I often find myself awake at ungodly hours of the night scrolling through this forum and dreaming of a mantis shrimp of my own. I’m a freshwater fish keeper, and just recently got a job in the freshwater section of my LFS. However, it’s safe to say the mantis has stolen my heart and has...

I am thinking of buying the Octo Aquatics Red Sea Reefer 170 baffle kit to divide the sump where the skimmer sits into a refugium on one side. https://octoaquatics.com/product/sump-baffle-kit/
Question 1: which side should I make the refugium, and which side should I make the skimmer? (Picture...
I have a BRAND NEW pump/controller/power cord for this skimmer. I BELIEVE the old controller is messed up, so you could maybe repair the controller. The Internals of the old skimmer pump in this is fine. You will need to install the new pump/controller assembly. It isn't shown in the pictures...
I had my first aquarium ever about 5 years ago, and went with a 120 gallon mixed reef with a 50 gallon sump. For the most part had a lot of success and fun doing it, though coral growth wasn't great. When i moved i ended up giving the tank to my sister and upgraded to a 360 gallon mixed reef...
