Nanofreak79 Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks, and I ran the skimmer for about 6 months back when I had my picoaquariums tank. For a nano skimmer it's pretty sweet. I actually replaced my tunze 9002 with it and had better skim. Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Really ? Maybe that's why so many people sell theirs. I just cannot get it to stop making micro bubbles. It did the same thing after about 3-4 months in my brother n laws 15 gallon... Any ideas ? I'm thinking of maybe putting a piece of sponge in the bubble trap but idk.. It's pissing me off so bad.

Nanofreak79 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 I just sold a brand new one to 1sttimereefer. She sent me pics of hers broken in and stopped producing mad micro bubble. Hers broke in in a few weeks? Can't remember when I sold it, but it hasn't been that long. Having to use material to stop it is annoying on it's own. Maybe there just not enough of a slime/bacterial coating. Maybe PM her and see what she's doing. Mine did produce bubbles all over the tank for quite some time. Pic she sent 5 days ago.http://flic.kr/p/o2eZ83'>http://flic.kr/p/o2eZ83'>20140618-190601-1 by -Nanofreak79- Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hmmm,that's weird. It should have been fine even after a few months,but meet stopped. Here's what mine is looking like: My brother n law lost the lid to the collection cup.. So this is what I'm using for the meantime: Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 I think I can see the micro bubbles in the first pic. The cover is a good idea, or even a pice of acrylic. Idk what to say other than others have had your same experience with micro bubbles. They should calm down though, or by now. Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I tried a piece if acrylic,but pressure builds up and it pushes the silicone off lol. It scared me one night. It's a decent skimmer.. But irritating. So how you liking the new setup besides the hold up on the stand piece ? Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 If I could get the stand together I think it's a great tank. I'm thinking of going bare bottom......not sure. I have a pistol shrimp that wouldn't like it. I think I might miss the sand look. Link to comment
Horerczy Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I like the bare bottom look but I keep buying things that like sand. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Today's the day I'm suppose to recieve my stand piece! I have my kids baseball game at 4:30.....let's hope fedex shows up before that. I'd like to get the stand togehter before I leave. Possibly a late night transfer, I'll see how I feel. All assuming the piece shows up. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Well, guess what. Yep, I got screwed. No piece showed up and cad didn't answer there phone or my email today. Wtf? I guess Monday is the day, just like I told the dude was gonna happen, which he assured me it wouldn't. Link to comment

Its just common sense/ customer service 101 IMO.... you ####ed up big, dude trusted you, and your going to dick around some more.... no, not if you want him to buy another whatever from you Cop out....lol completely Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 What is it w/ customer service anymore!!!! Can't anybody deliver normal customer service, it's not right that this is the norm anymore. That pisses me off too. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Yeah, I'm pretty bummed. Like I told Jason, it should have been handled different. Excuses and apologies don't matter. If all I was missing was the sponge, I'd be in ok shape about the wait. Link to comment
LVCaniac Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I worked in retail for years as a cashier. And what is ironic about customer service is that is usually where employers put their least friendly, disgruntled employees that they dont feel like firing because they are lazy managers who dont want to go thru the hiring process again. they would rather have their friendlier people out in the store interacting and making sales. AND this is why very few people have good experiences with customer service Link to comment

That pisses me off too. Yeah it is pathetic, its crazy how these companies get away with this kinda shit and think its ok. They should fear being shut down by lack of sales from something like this, not making bullshit excuses to tide you over until you get whatever (if you even get it from some....). GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Now he's hulking out, great. Lol. I was just slamming my own head into the wall earlier. I worked in retail for years as a cashier.

Horerczy Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 The disgruntled unfriendly employees where i work are that way because they try to go by policy and the managers go behind them and do whatever they please to make the customer happy making the associates look like they don't want to help the customers in the process.

Reefkid88 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I have to say,their products are top notch "tank wise" but their communication isn't. Like when I ordered my 7 gallon,I never got a tracking number after a week and a half of calling and emails,I finally got ahold of them via the phone and they gave me my tracking number and the tank was at my local fu*king post office lol really ?! Regardless of your stature of purchase big or small,it should have been over nighted to you. Sh*t even if it was just a sponge,they should still do everything in their power to get even the smallest of things shipped to you as fast as possible. Plain and simple,it's a good ethic for a company. Link to comment
