travisurfer Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 these skimmers really arent that great. i would just sell it and turn the middle chamber into a fuge. hth Link to comment
idog Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Toss it in the trash and save the headache. I've yet to meet someone who has had success with this thing. Link to comment
travisurfer Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 someone is making some changes to it in the diy forum, i would still sell or just keep the pump Link to comment

idog Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Look in the DIY section or check out Stealhealr's post to get some fuge ideas. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=54602 Just tossing some macro algae in the tank and dong regular water changes will give you all the nutrient export you need. There is a camp of aquarists out there who say you can't run a marine tank skimmerless. These are mostly people that sell skimmers. The Fission is not worth the trouble. Link to comment
