I am using the remora on my 55 gal tank and it works great. Real easy to set up and to clean.

Which remora are you using? The one with the maxi-jet 1200? Is it fairly quiet?

Any other opinions?

Yes I am using the Aqua C Remora with the maxi-jet 1200. It is quiet.

I am using the remora's with mag 3's and it is a little noisy depending on where the water
level is at in the tank, seems to me the lower the quieter. I am really happy with them
otherwise. It is all I have ever tried however. I have no sump's either.

I have used the Aqua C Remora on my 29 gallons reef tank. The skimmer is really good but I found it very noisy.

I will say that I have a huge bio load and it seems to do amazing stuff.

I had a Jebo hob skimmer on my 180. All I ever heard was bad things about them but I found: It was very quiet, The only sound was water going down a ramp about 2". It pulled about a cup of thick black goo every 4-6 days. It never leaked, not even a little bit. It was very easy to adjust. It cost me $30 on E-bay. I now have a bigger skimmer but I am keeping the Jebo for a future cube or something. These are my experiences yours may differ. I liked my Jebo
