Had great fun putting this thing together...and I don't mean that sarcastically. It comes well packaged and in kit form so that you must construct it following the diagrams. It is really well constructed in terms of its manufacture...solid and strong. I find the cup to be easily removed for emptying and it has a cup drain should you wish to drain off the contents into a larger container....a great idea if you're going away and can't empty the cup. The water height control is prominent and well made with a marker and numbers to make life easier. Set it to max for the lowest water height level!The skimmer sits on 4 rubber feet, is quiet and produces a mass of bubbles and a good foam.

A great skimmer, relatively quiet and now pulling a great skim. I have it on setting 2 on my Reefer 170.It took 10 days to break in and having seen various advice online, here's what worked for me in case it helps anyone else:Day 1: Soaked in RO water with white vinegar. Install and turn on - it overflowed like crazyDay 1-3 Left overflowing back in to the sump. By Day 3 it was still overflowing but much more slowly.Day 4-6 installed a clamp on the airline to reduce airflow. This stopped the overflowing but still only pulled water, no skim.Day 7: Removed clamp on airline and did a 30% water change through the overflow tube in the skimmer. After an hour I turned it up from 'max'

What a little skimmer this is.Pro's.It's a third of the price for the Rolls Royce of skimmers can't say who they are but work it out. I have replaced two of the far more expensive skimmers in the last four years. It has a small footprint. Fits in the sump like a dream even has room for the Clarisea filter roll..Dead easy to put together (note there are no instructions but go on YouTube there are loads of assembly and start up videos).Its so quiet ?.Its CHEAP!!!!Cons.For me there has been none.You will hear people say it floods the cup but for start up it set to max this way the bubble flow is at its minimum. This will allow the unit to build up its films.

This is a good bit of kit and works well however there is one thing that lets it down, the main body has two holes for the suction pump to allow you to orientate it to the desired position that you need in your sump. They supply a blanking cap for the spare hole, however the blanking cap is a standard universal cheap red pipe blank that is ill fitting and it just blows out after a short time the pump runs, I've had to secure the blank in place with an elastic band which is unacceptable when you consider the quality and price of the unit, why can't they supply a good fitting blank that locks in the hole? Apart from that its great.

Outstanding skimmer. Perfect for my needs. Really does a great job and at a fraction of the cost of most other brands. I wanted to wait a while before leaving a proper review... giving me enough time to properly test the skimmer and report back on its performance. If I lost or broke this skimmer, I'd buy the very same again. Well worth the money. Very happy with the item.

After a lot of trouble I had with a Deltec I changed to this model for my Red Sea Reefer 250 tank. It works really well and is surprisingly quiet and it has never overflowed once. Recommended.

Over the years I've had a few skimmers and so far this one has been awesome. I assembled it, set it to max flow and let it go. It's the perfect addition to my new tank.

Very good value for money skimmer. Not too noisey, well built and robust. Hard to fine tune, and the instructions are useless...you need to check out youtube for info.

Very good skimmer producing a lot of skimate. Took a couple of days to break in but after that adjustment was easy and never had an issue with overflowing.
