    Default Skimmer ?'s

    Well, I have a HOB skimmer, Ive adjusted this thing a million times over the last 5-6 months. It will work for a day or so, then it just fills up the cup with water. Ill empty the water, readjust then it will skim like crazy and foam out the lid and all, then the next day, full of water again. Its just ****ing me off. I dont think its gonna work for me. So, Probably during the beginning of 08' Im going to get an In-sump skimmer, whats a pretty good one for the money?

    I love my Euro-Reef and have NEVER had a problem with it. Basically plug-n-play. It was well worth the money and would recommend it to everyone!

    What kind of HOB do you have now? What sized tank and how much money do you want to spend on it? There's a LOT of options...

    EuroReefs really are awesome skimmers. Personally, I think they're the best you can get and still stay in the lower price range, as far as skimmers go.
    There was a debate question about skimmers, here's the link, hope it helps!

    I think you may not be being patient enough with it. Usually the water level should be in the neck of the skimmer. Let it sit about midway in the neck overnight, possibly 48 hours and see if it pulls some nog. Also, when you feed you should turn your skimmer off.
    That being said. EuroReef
