Which Skimmer is Better?

[Bryan47]

I have two skimmers that I know are both small for my system but I will be running one of them or maybe both until I get an appropriate skimmer for the system. 72G display w/ 29G sump.

I have the Instant Ocean Sea Clone 100.
I'm sure all of us have seen it, here it
is:

The other skimmer I have is a Remora HOB skimmer. Pictured here:

Is one better than the other? Should I use both of them ? Thanks everyone!

They are both using the same pump, not gonna be much difference in the 2.

Would running both be better? And I'm using a pump from harbor freight it was like $18 but pumps out a lot more than the 1200

 

[Reefing Madness]

Both would be ok to use. And if you modified the other, thats gotta help out. Did you mesh mod the impellar? Is the shaft ceramic?

It has a big sponge filter, it's meant for ponds. They're great pumps for dirt cheap. I'm using one as my return pump now until I can afford a DC6000
