Sancho Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Skimmer fell apart in my Solana. So I am looking for a skimmer that will fit in the back. I have looked on other forums and most post regarding this are old and some of the recommended skimmers are no longer made or are HOB options. I am looking at the Aquamax WS-1, Hydor Slim Skim Nano, Skimz SH1 Nano. I have a 9001 on my cad 8 and am not very impressed with it. Was looking at the 9002 awhile back but its no longer made and used ones a hard to find. I have also found some knock off's. the Coral Box s150 looks very promising for the price. I am just concerned with how high it will have to be mounted in the Solana. Any Solana owners out there? what have you guys had good luck with? Link to comment
bodiam Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I have a solana and my skimmer also died an untimly death. Couldn't find a replacement pump and then it cracked. I bought the eshopps PSK 75 in sump skimmer. Hasn't arrived yet (Amazon purchase) and my tank is undergoing a total overhaul, but I recommend you check out the eshopps. Link to comment
Sancho Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Let me know how that works out. Looks like a nice option. Link to comment
bodiam Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Too big to fit in the rear chambers and I don't have a separate sump. Sent it back and ended up with a Tunze 9004. Link to comment
