Here is my really cheap bucket. It is a little ugly sitting next to your tank but if your leaving for a week nobody will see it and then you can just put it all away until needed again
Just set your skimmer for more of a dryer skimmate. Also can you fit your skimmer with a drain line? It is easy to do with simple stuff from home depot. I fit my ASM skimmer with a drain and also my remora with one. Here is the one I have in my ASM G2
What I did was take an old 5gal salt bucket and hooked up with a nurse to get some IV tubeing drilled a small hole at the bottom of the 5gal bucket shoved the IV bag spike for the tubeing the the bucket higher then my sump set the adjustment on the IV line and filled the bucket with RO water and...

Ok I have a remora skimmer on my tank I know its not the greatest skimmer but it was free and is about all the room I have for a skimmer. I am having a problem with it filling up the cup with just water. I have not ever used one of these skimmers and there was no instructions with it. Any...
