I know I know. This is not one of those fancy new cone skimmers, or red dragon, etc etc, but I thought I would post this thread for other people with smaller tanks.
I was looking for a small compact skimmer for my 30g frag tank (50g total water volume). I was running an aqua c remora skimmer before this one, and I was not happy with the noise or performance. I ended up getting the 9002 used and it had a bad pump. I ran it for awhile, but eventually it just stopped working. I finally broke down and ordered a new pump from Tunze, and im actually really impressed. It's super quiet and foams like crazy. Of course it's not really comparable to a full size skimmer. But for a frag tank or a nano, this would make a great skimmer.
This was the skimmate after 1 day of running
Anyways. Just thought id share my experience.
Hot Dogs are GOOD!
