sea clone 100...

[Cheeser]

do these things actually work? like do they even have any effect at all? ive been running mine for about a week. and i have a little bit of foam, but really hardly any. it doesnt even look like the foam im used to seeing come out of a skimmer. it seems like the bubbles arent fine enough? i have a diy skimmer that pumps out a whole lot of foam and gunk everyday. is it worth using the seaclone as a hang on to supplement my diy? or am i just wasting electricity?

 

[little_fish]

the seaclone skimmers arent really worth the plastic they are made of....

 

[Cheeser]

i thought so. i mean i figure...why are they even on the market? they gotta do something? theyre rated for 100 gallon, but i dont see how they got that rating?

 

[little_fish]

they are on the market because people buy them, and they are sold in petco stores, which is where people tend to go if they have no clue what they are doing

"SeaClone Protein Skimmer doesn't look--or perform--like any other protein skimmer."


At least they're honest lol.

i actually have a seaclone on my 37 gallon atm because my aqua c remora cracked, and it pulls like a half a cup of nasty skim a day. it is performing unbelievably. but i bought x19s reef octopus hob skimmer so ill put that on.

They have them at my store, too. I point 'em in the right direction.
