Best value on the market. The only thing I would add is an intake tube that skims the surface, but none of the in-sump skimmers on the market currently do that so relative to that, awesome skimmer.

This skimmer does a good job of getting crud out of my tank. Good adjustability and good foam production. However, there are things I do not like which why it gets 3 stars. 1. No directions. I imagine if you didn’t have an understanding of how a skimmer works, this would be confusing to put together. 2. The blue adjustment tube on the back is open at the top. I tend to get foam coming out of that tube. That’s not where foam should be building up in the first place. I had to cap that off to keep from reintroducing skimmate back into the tank. 3. The pump is noisy. I have a Rio return pump on my 54gal. Rio’s are not known for being quiet, however this skimmer pump is easily twice as loud as my Rio with that constant humming/vibration sound. I may be looking into another pump simply for that reason. The skimmer does its job well, but the design is flawed.Read full review

I am trying to start a salt water aquarium. I don't know anything about salt water aquariums. The directions for the use of the skimmer are no where to be found. The directions for putting it together are terrible. I believe that you also need a sump tank to use it. No one says that anywhere. The skimmer is probably ok if you can figure how to put it together and use it.

Skimmer really pulls the gunk out. Compared to name brand skimmers I have owned, this skimmer works very well. It Is quiet even without the silencer, is easy to adjust and clean. Motor is powerful and well built.

But boy does this slimmer work well! 5-6 inches of water. You might need to raise it a wee bit when placing in sump. Pulls out a lot of slimy dry skimmate. Quiet and needs no daily adjustments like my odyssea.
