You know....even if I fixed the leak...i still have the bubble issue

I'm ordering the Aqua C Remora tonight......with the Maxijet I guess.....
After I get it, I will take the other off, clean it up, and if anyone is interested...HAHA...let me know.....HECK it's only 8 months old.....I just don't want to mess with it anymore

 

[meowzer]

I will.....as soon as I get the other one hooked up.....I'll get your info

I suppose I could use it. Give the skimmer world a try. I just have never run a skimmer for more then a couple of weeks. I looked into them, studied them, built a few, and just never liked them. Maybe I have never been in possession of a good one? I will say that in all the stuff I've read about them, I have never owned one of the popular ones.
Maybe put flowers in it.LOL

[meowzer]

LOL......what kills me is this WAS SUPPOSED to be a good one.....
I was flipping between the Aqua C and the Octo.......got the Octo.....and well.....bubbles and drips

I will definitely let you know when I get the other one....and I have time to find a box big enough....HAHA...it has to be 17" long...or 18"

 

[posiden]

I'll be waiting. LOL

[smartorl]

I wonder if the leak and the bubbles are somehow connected? If water can get out, air can get in right?

 

[meowzer]

I have NO clue....I don't even care anymore...LOL....(well I'd like to know what was wrong)
I'm just ready to get another one.....hopefully the last skimmer for this tank....hmmmmm....I said that before, didn't I

No, different end of the skimmer. Also in their design, they tried to incorporate a bubble trap. It must not work very well.

The box the Remora comes in should be long enough to use to send your old one out.
My urchin is running fine after 6 hours. Still not seeing any mirco bubbles come out of the thing. It still isnt bubbling high enough to get into the collection cup either. Going to have to check it tomorrow morning.

Skip the skimmer and save the cash and buy the Deltec!!!!!

 

[meowzer]

Too late...I ordered it last night, and got an e-mail notice that it shipped today....I'm not spending $600 on a skimmer for the 54G....no way

[nikesb]

the mce300 is cheaper and wouldve worked awesome too

 

[meowzer]

The body width is 4.5".....I only have room for 3.5"
$300 is not cheap
