Default Tunze 9010 vs. Euro Reef RS 100

Ok, so I woke up this morning to find that the 9010 was not generating any foam. I also noticed that the water was leaking from the top. I still have the RS 100 and even pulled it out of storage since I considered putting back into service.

Has anyone used the two skimmers and if so what are your thoughts on the them?

My Tunze 9010 never had problems when I was using it. Where exactly is the water leaking from on the top? Is the plastic cracked somewhere?

Sometimes it just needs a good clean. Every 2-3 months when I have the time I used to take it out and give it a good rinse and scrub. You may be overdue with a general cleaning of the pump. If you have more problems, contact rvitko over in the Tunze forums of RC.
