Microbubble Factory

a lot of microbubbles, my tank is unpleasant to look at, the body is made of cheap plastic and extremely thin, 150-200 is definitely not worth it, more like 60 if you have no problems with the tank, you can see it cloudy due to microbubbles. Try this product. If you are looking for a skimmer, look for a better product

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Negative impression

Great skimmer; Once that idiot read the manual!

It takes a little getting used to, but this slotted spoon is cool. It produces far less waste water and more actual waste than many skimmers, plus it's very easy to clean and maintain. I prefer the controller, but again it takes a little getting used to. A few important things to know about these skimmers. Upon arrival, the bubble hose may have come loose due to leaks.

I had no microbubbles and while she was still digging/filling she pulled out black water in an empty tank for 12…

Great replacement for the RSM 250 skimmer

I bought a used RSM 250 tank a few years ago and for a number of reasons I never liked the standard skimmer. It was loud, shimmered randomly, and was difficult to tune. The stock skimmer pump also generated a lot of heat, which always kept my water temperature high. (I replaced the stock lights with LEDs to keep the heat down). While I understand that silence is a relative term, the DOC 9004 DC is quiet compared to a standard skimmer. So quiet I have to take the drip tray off to see if it's on.

  • Free for educational purposes
