    I picked up some new frags
    One of the plugs had allot of hair algae on it so I grabbed a snail of the back
    because they are always getting in the back of my 29 cube so I decided to
    place him on the plug, a hour later he is a cleaning machine lol.
    I cant get over how clean is is getting the plug.

    As a skimmer I like it allot it works well,
    the mounting extension for the magnets not so much they constantly fall of causing the skimmer to fall in the back.
    other then that , that is my only complaint.

    I have glue the tabs so hopefully it stays.
