Review on TOM Aquarium Canister and Power Filter Surface Skimmer by Koller Products by Darla Wilmoth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great little skimmer for any aquarium - even better customer service!

I just received this surface skimmer in the mail and straight away it looks very well packaged but one of the teeth was already broken right out of the box. It's a pity, but it doesn't matter. The skimmer is now set up and has been running for about 6 hours and it's doing its job perfectly! Don't expect it to pull all the water into the canister from the top without letting air into the filter. You can set up a skimmer for this, but it won't work with my canister filter. Setup was very easy. The hardest part is getting it lined up correctly so water flows from all sides of the skimmer. Overall I really like this skimmer. My water is crystal clear and I can clearly see the bottom of the tank from above. Missing a 5th star because it arrived with a broken tooth but it still works great. EDIT: I've had this product for a few months now and it works even better than when I first added it to my aquarium. Finally, the flow through the skimmer becomes very even. During a water change I left the heater on and burned a piece of the skimmer and flow control valve. I emailed KollerCraft customer service to ask if I could purchase just the parts I need and they shipped me a brand new skimmer a week later! This level of customer service is second to none in the industry and I would highly recommend this skimmer and all KollerCraft products.
