In Sump Skimmer questions

[fier660r]

i got a 29g bowfront and am modifying it for a 15g sump but im having trouble picking what kinda skimmer i want to put in the sump. i got a seaclone100 hang on right now and really dont like the way it performs . any tips would help THX

Heard good things about Remona for small tanks. Since your sump is only 15g, I think you'd need a compact skimmer. There are two types of Remona, I can't remember which is which at top of my head, but one's designed for in-sump and the other's hang on back.

The Remora "Urchin" is the insump model and has a really tiny footprint.

I'll second the Urchin.

I have a Seaclone 100 that I don't use, they are just about worthless as far as skimmers go. I used mine about a month before buying a Lifereef skimmer and now I have one of the best...

i actually took a look around last night and found an asm mini cheep for like $118.00 is that a good skimmer .. if not i will look around more or go with the remora urchin .. its just hard convincing my self to buy it.

id recomend the urchin pro over the ASM mini.
what size footprintdo you have?
i would also recomend one of the compact deltecs like the MC 500. not sure you are looking to spend that amount of money yet. and you probably dont even need that much skimming. but ive always liked to overdo things in that department
