Yeah, seems to be very happy in this tank as opposed to the 150, must be because it gets more attention now.

 

[JayM]

how the hell did I miss that one when I was pillaging your 150?

Skimmer

Okay, changed out the factory (not so great) skimmer for an AquaticLife Mini skimmer 115. This skimmer is rated for 30 gallons but CRA has one running on a 65 display and looks to be working pretty good for a few months now. This skimmer need to go in the middle chamber on a Solana as it will not fit in the 1st chamber and you cannot use the hanging brackets as it won't reach down far enough but it appears to be a perfect fit there.

I'll provide feedback in a week or so once it starts to break in.

i was thinking of getting that skimmer. but i when with the tunze 9002. i am wondering how well that one works. good luck

 

[ohsweetmadness]

you'll have to keep us solana owners posted on how it works out for you!

 

[Behrmon]

Will do, day 2 has it pulling some clear water into the cup, I'm expecting a week or to for some muck.

Prob after tomorrow nights PB drawing!

Still playing w/ the skimmer so no feedback there yet.

Today I ran over to CRA and picked up my trim kit. I did not want to add this but due to the impending kitten and to keep the Perc in I did. Actually it's pretty nice looking, not as big and unsightly as I thought it might be.

I put my fan back on no prob and my moonlight attached to the glass and all looks nice and clean.

Update.

Skimmer is working great. I will try to get an updated FTS soon.

New addition:
