I am very pleased with this product. My protein skimmer on this tank is built into the refugium and does not skim the surface. I hooked this surface skimmer up to my Magnum H.O.T. and, as others have reported, within minutes there was no sign of any surface film or debris on the water. Excellent!

I recently purchased this surface skimmer in hopes that it would clean the surface of my 55 gallon reef tank. I hooked it up to my Fluval 404, and within minutes to my astonishment the surface was "crystal clear!" I still cannot believe how easy it was to set up and how quickly it worked. Now I know my corals and anemones are getting the best light possible. I would definitely recommend this product!

I just received my Surface Skimmer today and with almost no trouble at all I had it hooked up to my Eco canister pump working great. If it keeps working like this I won't be looking at the nasty surface film on my tank water any more. There was a little adjustment to get it pulling water and not producing bubbles from sucking air, but with that done it's working just fine. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who doesn't have an overflow.

I always had an oily film on the surface of my water. I attached the surface skimmer to the water pump that feeds my protein skimmer. I instantly saw the film start to pour down the floating intake. Within one hour the surface of my water was clear! Because the intake floats, I also do not have to worry about my pump running dry.

This is the coolest, most well designed thing I have seen in a long time. I connected it to my magnum canister filter. All the scum was gone from the surface of my tank in minutes. This surface skimmer is worth every penny.

I have two hooked up to my fluval 405s. Works great. Two things I noticed is you have to play a little bit with the fluval hoses to make them fit right. And it takes a few minutes to dial in. I liked it so much I bought one for my mom's 20 gallon.

Great product. Connected Surface Skimmer to my Magnum HOT Filter and surface film was gone within 20 minutes. Reef tank is crystal clear now. Great value.
