nano skimmer

I currently have my eshopps nano skimmer in the left rear corner of my fluval evo 13.5g, and in the past it has been collecting gunk but I haven’t had to clean it out for a while now. I’m wondering if it is actually picking anything up now that I have a wavemaker flowing towards the opposite end...

I’m pretty new to protein skimmers because I have a nano tank and haven’t had the need for one in the past, so I’m confused on some things. I got the eshopps nano skimmer and was told to not let the bubbles overflow, so I set the water level low. But aren’t the bubbles at least supposed to reach...

I recently acquired a very tiny protein skimmer for my 15 gallon nano tank and was wondering how often to run it? The collection cup is pretty small so I’d have to empty it every hour or so if I kept it running constantly. I just don’t get how to run this thing 24 hours a day. Or do I even need to?

I am selling a nano skimmer. Used for approximately just under 1yr. in a 20gal AIO. In great condition, but decided to upgrade. Asking $75 shipped, but can work out a trade for anemones (RFA or BTA) or discounted price for someone local.

I have a waterbox 20 cube and I'm having some nutrient issues that weekly water changes aren't solving. I feed 1/4th of a frozen mysis cube per day and 1/4 teaspoon of reef roids per week, so the issue shouldn't be overfeeding. I do not have a skimmer, nutrient removing chemical media, or a...

Just wanted to leave a post and say that this skimmer is an awesome option for a nano tank. Most say they are not needed, however i am of the mindset that more aeration as well as consistency in parameters such a small tank is better than the fluctuations resulting from water changes. The...

Chamber 2- intank filter media and refugium with chaeto. Chamber 3- return. I am looking for something to go in the first or third chamber as the...

I’ve had the tank set up for about a year, and currently have a sapphire damsel, fire fish, and some LPS and softies. The tank is stable, and my water change schedule is doing fine, but I’m wondering if it would be worth it to go for a nano skimmer for it. Are there any reasons I should or...

Running a Reef Glass nano skimmer that utilizes a limewood airstone. It actually pulls out some incredible gunk......when it works. Here's my issue and I am running out of ideas. The skimmer will bubble fine for awhile, then you'll see all the bubble stop, a second or so later a huge surge of...

So I've been running an IM 20 with skimmer for a few months, I am still fighting microbubbles at times. I expect bubbles after a water change or feeding. But not constantly. I hate it. I've added some filter padding after the skimmer to try and trap bubbles but I still can't seem to eliminate...

Hey everyone, first time post here. Trying to decide on a skimmer for my JBJ45. I tried the tunze 9004 and just don't like it. First were the micro bubbles and couldn't get em to stop. Tried again moving to a different chamber in the filter, but hate how the cup just comes right off if touched...

Hi all, was wondering what is your guys’ opinion on the best nano protein skimmer for the fusion 14g that could fit in the back compartment. I am about to pull the trigger on this. I’d love to hear all the feedback on what’s best. thank you

So I just got my very first Eshopps nano protein skimmer in my 16g biocube that I placed in the middle chamber. It was a bit of a tight squeeze but I got it to fit. I’ve had it for 1 day now and the bubbles will not stop coming out super fast regardless of the depth I place it. I fully...
