Do you use a protein skimmer?

You got some pictures of the massive skimmer???

I will put a 8x10 in the living room when I get it up and running. Mommy will like that a bunch. I'll put it right next to the kids pictures.

Would love for it to arrive today....;D

 

I use an AQUA C EV180 on my 125.
AQUA C Remora on my 75
and no skimmer on my daughters 30 hex with soft corals and a Pacific Long Tentacle Anemone, fish and inverts.

 

Its on my skimmer thread.

I need to update it as I have added the wetneck and self cleaning cup since then. I need to get a video of everything on. Its pretty neat.

 

how can i have crispy clear water?

I have RSM and their skimmer is not that good. and also i cut down the black foam %50 percent since i was having i lot of micro bubbles but my water is not really clear how can i achieve that?

 

Well I'm still waiting on the video.....

 

Remora on my 55gal

and a Euro Reef on my 125gal

sorry cant remember the numbers and letters and all that. lol

Both work fantasticly btw.

 

I run a Bubble King 300 External.

Great skimmer. Might be see as an extravagant skimmer but I love it.

after reading about some of your skimmer setups, I feel like a certified noob.

I'm running a Prizm (which I'm not at all happy with) on my 60g.

crazy thing, with just a micro adjustment, I go from no effect to overflow. There's no in between.

(somebody tell me what I SHOULD be using?)

 

how's it working out for you? this is the only piece of equipment i bought without thorough researching and for a few weeks i absolutely despised this thing! still do actually! i've got it as close to dialed in as i can and i just leave it alone now,sometimes it foams,sometimes it doesn't,it's handsdown the most expensive airstone i've ever bought though,the only good thing i can say is that i'm on the fence as far as skimmer/no skimmer goes and since it only works occasionaly it satisfies both sides of the argument
