I have never had any problem with my tunze 9002. could have more skimmate but runs pretty well imo. about a cup a week. 75g stocked with a few lps (fed), blue damsel, canary wrasse, peacock mantis.
however, if you have the cash, the deltec is superior from what i hear. Last edited by justinl; 10-27-2008 at 05:18 PM.

much darker than green tea. there is a slight fizzling noise that be slightly louder on some days, but it's really nothing more than a whisper.
imo the 9002 would definitely serve well on a 30g. MCE300 would be overkill, but would get the job (and then some) done while allowing for possible upgrades down the road.

Well, I'll be the one to suggest an AquaC Remora. I've only used these skimmers, but I have been very impressed with the quality and consistancy of them.. they have never let me down. You put a small peice of paper towel into the injector compartment and it's very, very quiet. I have my nano in my living room and noise is no issue whatsoever.
I am now using a Remora Nano w/ an upgraded Maxijet 1200, and it's near the same performance as a regular Remora. The skimmate I get all varies, depending on how I have the collection cup tuned in. Generaly speaking though, the skimmate is dark, while if the cup is set low, it's more of a darker green tea colour. My only gripe with this skimmer, and is a common problem with most skimmers I am sure, is once the neck of the collection cup gets a slime coating of algae, the skimmate becomes more wet, and less frothy and foamy. I hope that made sense. Not a big problem, just a simple wipe down the skimmer neck every 3rd or 4th day for me. Just my two cents, Remora has never let me down! Very reliable skimmer IME.

Oscar,
I'd be looking at this skimmer from Aqua-medic. I was going to buy the blue-3000 but I just couldn't wait until the supplier got it and instead got a Tunze 9015. The traditional AM skimmers are pretty well liked and the blue series gets rave reviews in Europe were it's been out for a while. As for price...Aquacave does ship to Canada and $199 isn't too bad, especially when you compare it to the Deltec. Only the pump needs to go into the chamber too so you generally won't be too worried about space. Here's a link: http://www.aquacave.com/turboflotor-...edic-2274.html I looked at the Blue3000 at Wai's in Calgary and build quality was very good. Just my thoughts though.

Go
I use the remora nano to on all my tanks Remora that is I have one on my 33 gal QT/
whatever tank. I also run another nano on my seahorse tank. All be it probably very low bioload. Having said that I have nothing to compare it with, I second OCDP mine have never let me done either! ________ Harley-Davidson FLHS Last edited by Leah; 01-20-2011 at 10:50 AM.
