Small size works great in AIO

I have a 100 gallon Truvu all-in-one that is suspended from the internal structure, one of the few mid-sized skimmers that will fit. Well built and started shooting in 3 days, great product!

Pros
  • Max Flow: 174 gph
Cons
  • 0

Not suitable for pallets

Almost impossible to use in a swamp. Either too much or too little flow. Also if you get it right, after the reset it will be thrown again. Still haven't figured out how to clean the bottom filter sponge. I wish I could send it back.

Pros
  • Maximum capacity: up to 55 gallons.
Cons
  • Null

TAG SUPPLIES does a great job with their customer service.

Well made product, solid not flimsy but not enough product instructions especially for beginners to get it particularly working. with adjustments. However, the supplier/Amazon did a great job with my refund. Thanks.

Pros
  • Variable Mounting: Pan/Hang
Cons
  • Not bad

Use in a swamp is not allowed.

I bought this skimmer to replace an old CPR SR-2 skimmer in a pallet. The info says it works in a tank or in a swamp. Here's the problem; This skimmer has no flow control or level control. You cannot adjust this skimmer and it must be adjusted by adjusting the water level in the sump or the height of the skimmer if it is in a tank. Therefore, for this skimmer to work in a sump, you need to keep water in the sump. level matches. This is difficult without constant maintenance or float switches…

Pros
  • Power: 10W
Cons
  • Coefficient Set
