I think Remoras are the biggest over-rated p.o.s around. I've had one on my 55 corner bowfront fowlr tank for about 7 mos now. Never could get decent skimmate since setting it up. Best I could do is tea colored like yours. Even a prism or bak-pak skimmer pulls more out of the water. I've even had J&l check it out, and that's the way it's supposed to work. My Vertex in my reef pulls thick mud and I know it's doing it's job.
I don't know how people rate this skimmer as one of the best hob skimmers.
The skimmer has been on the tank since the weekend, so about 3 days, and that was about 6hrs of skimate - just started tweeking it.
