Default OF Skimmer

Anybody using the OF Skimmer driven by air stone?

Was planning to use it on my 1 or 2footer nano marine tank.

i used before a similar air stone driven skimmer by Dymax (Dymax IQ skimmer), result were not very good, at most light tea colored skimmate. That being provided you get the Sanders 2 air wood and change at least once every 2 - 3 weeks. after 3 weeks it starts to clog and it dosn't produce the fine bubbles anymore..

You can do 10% WC every 3 days for better result since usually nano tank dosn't require skimmer as water changing is easier. For your 2 footer nano, can consider a Bubble Magus QQ skimmer ($80~) and it will give u almost black skimmate!
