Slim Skim Nano micro bubble problem

[Acipenser]

I had that skimmer in my tank, but its now sitting on top of my freezer. I found that it skims like crazy but the collection cup is tiny so it needs to be emptied daily, it also takes up valuable real estate in the tank, it produces micro bubbles now and then but the worst thing is after a while the skimmer starts to become very noisy due to the way it's built the air pump just sits inside against the acrylic it vibrates the other pieces of acrylic that are slotted - I now have a Remora C a bit of over kill for my 26 gallon tank but it freed up space inside my tank and it's doesn't vibrate.

Eventually I am going to silicone the Hydor slim skim together , I did a quick fix on it with zap straps.
