Default Tunze Nano Skimmer

Specs on the Skimmer:

Quote:
Recommended for aquariums up to 52 gallons (196 liters) for FOWLR or Soft Coral aquariums but only up to 26 gallons (98 liters) for stony coral aquariums
Claims to remove up to 80% of proteins and cellulose
Dimensions: 4.9" L x 2.1" W x 13.3" H
Can be mounted on glass thickness up to 19 mm (.74 inches)
Claims to be gentle on plankton the way the water diffuses through a small opening in the bottom of the skimmer and may be more suitable for breeder tanks that utilize live plankton. Hmm.
Immersion depth: approx. 180 to 220 mm (7 to 8.6 inches)
Power Consumption: 10 Watts
Skimmer cup volume: .3 liters (.079 US gallons)
Air capacity: 150 l/h (39.6 US gal/h)
Internal Nano Pump 800.040
Comes with cleaning and maintenance brushes
Retail Price: $150+
I love this skimmer, for anyone that is in need of a nano skimmer this is the one to go with. After 48H this skimmer is pulling out the thickest skimate I have ever seen. Not only that but I have pulled more skimmate out with the Tunze in 3 days than the JBJ's skimmer pulled out in 6 months!

Ill vouch for this one as well. I went from a slightly modded red sea prizm to a tunze nano. there really isnt a comparison between the two.
