hello everyone. well since my sump/fuge idea failed when i mom got too worried somethign would spill, im stick with all HOB stuff. Right now i have a coralife super skimmer 65 and jsut last night i bought a remora pro with a skimming box and a rio 2500 pump. i MIGHT use mr pink's seaclone that apparently leaks and jsut wont skim if i can get it to work. But im basicaly jsut going to get everything tunes, and just run them all on my 40 reef for a good two-three weeks, maybe even less, to see how they all do and compare them to eachother. since there is so much info on the ability of these skimmers, but ive never heard of anyone runnign them at the same time on the same system. maybe we will realy be able to see jsut how close or far appart form eachother they are.
if anyone wants to lend me an extra HOB skimmer or two that they have and would be willing to give up for a little while that owuld be amazing. I promise you will get them back. and once i am finished, if im not able to make it to the next meeting (of CTARS for those waho apply), i could meet you somewhere and drop it off. I am esspecialy interested in a larger coralife. and would love both expensive and inexpensive skimmers.
thanks! you can PM me or better yet, post here so people will know who is contributing.
PS: if you have a skimmer that was already temp. donated, or i have listed above, dont hesitate to give it up because i have heard so many mixed opinions....ESSPECIALY if it has a different pump, or any mod. ect. and i dont think i will be using mike's seaclone because apparently it leaks (which is why i dont have a sump....just in case). and any modded skimemr would be interesting. size doesnt matter for this test.
also, this will be a GREAT way for anyone to show off a skimmer they are tryign to sell and do a good deed!! jsut think, everyones goign to want to buy your skimmer if it outpreforms the remora pro!
thansk everyone!
so far i have POSSIBLY a seaclone, coralife super skimmer 65, remora pro with skimmer box and rio 2500, and a skilter.
PS: i can come and pick up or meet particialy to those of you who are on the south-west side of mass. i live about 40 minutes from aqua dreams. also, if you know anyone coming to the august meeting here in CT (8/20) and would like to have them handle the transaction, that owuld be great and ill make sure it gets back to you.
