Review on Gulfstream Tropical AGU00522 Surface Aquarium by Liz Pacheco

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best skimmer I have found for small aquariums.

Do you hate suction cups? No, I mean HAAAAATE suckers? It even fits the impeller cap bushing on my Marineland Hex-5 filter on my Hex-5s. It fits the Aqua-Tech 100 and will likely attach to the Penguin 100b (will check when I get more). Easy to install: the threaded jacket slips onto the clamp lugs to press them against the pipe, the skimmer side separates from the clamp side. Adjustable volume of the air skirt under the skimmer head, adjustable bottom suction flow by rotating the skimmer tube jacket, the rotation of the skimmer is stopped by the guide channels. (also has a guide channel to allow the skimmer side to stay upright at the inlet OR rotate and force the skimmer side to stand upright even when the clamp is mounted horizontally!). Only one thing is missing: something that doesn't let the water flow between the clamping lugs! Several polyurethane pads glued on each side should fit.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
