Great little protein skimmer

I was about to buy a cheaper protein skimmer but am happy with this purchase. It really cleans the water surface from film and dirt. I haven't had any problems with the suction cups so far, maybe they've been improved. It would be nice if there were a spare filter sponge or two as these get sticky pretty quickly. I usually have to wash my sponge every 4-6 days.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons

Not safe for fish, will not stay in place

This product will not adhere to glass. I had it in September. However, the suction power of the skimmer is high. However, because it doesn't stay on the side of the tank. I am appalled at what happened to my favorite Bichir. It warns you that small fish can be sucked in. But that glider is responsible for the death of my Bichira. You need to attach the suction cups to this product.

  • Excellent

If you buy, CHANGE.

So I read the reviews and was worried my fish and shrimp might get sucked in. But I figured it would be okay if I turn it on for a bit, take a look and turn it off after it's done its job. I was wrong. Even when the shrimp were out they knew how to get in and unfortunately I lost a few little fellas as a result. So I modified it with this and a tool to secure the top hole. That being said, I can keep it 24/7 now. I haven't had any problems with the suction cup as others have mentioned. But I…

Cleans the water surface very well

Great invention. It really cleans the water surface from plaque and deposits in the aquarium without overflowing. Makes the water surface crystal clear quickly. It has a few downsides: The pump can be a bit noisy. The top float can get stuck on something and then stop working, sucking in and blowing out a lot of air. This can especially happen if the snails walk onto the glass of your aquarium - the top float is fairly close to the glass and it's easy for a snail to get underneath and stop it…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • A few little things

Added a magnet and works great.

firstly it cleaned the surface of my water very quickly. I installed it and left the room, I came back an hour later and the surface was clear of biofilm that I've been trying to get rid of for months, so less than an hour to clean the surface could only be 10 minutes but I can I can't say as I wasn't in the room. The inlet valve adapts perfectly to the water level. It would have been 5 stars if I didn't feel I needed to make a small change to it. I read enough reviews that had issues with…

Pretty good. suitable for fish and aquatic animals

just received etc I'm a real freak when it comes to my tanks. I like it when I have fat fish, dense substrate and clear water. I had a problem with surface dirt. There seemed to be a small oily stain, but I don't know the small debris at the end. Either water or I didn't clean it as well as I thought it would. Well I ran it for about 3 hours. This time is enough to skip the water 2-3 times. I turned on my filters. And the surface was clean. I hid it behind the exit so my fish wouldn't decide to

Pros
  • weight

The pump works great, the suction cups that hold it fail after a month

The skimmer works great and cleans the surface of the aquarium from dirt, oils etc. Unfortunately about a month old property, suction cups The fasteners that attach the skimmer to the aquarium lose their ability to hold it in place and it falls off the wall onto the bottom of the aquarium. I was a day late from my return date and luckily Revane was willing to accept the return. The manufacturer wanted me to pay shipping both ways to test the device. Shipping would cost more than the device…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast

Good solution for surface film but had to be modified to keep it.

Good: This product cleaned the surface of my 75G tank in about 15 minutes and keeps it clean. faced the same problem that many complain about, the suction cups don't hold. After about 2 months of use they started to let go almost every day. This is a common problem with all suction cups (although most last a year) and I have replaced everything in my aquarium with magnetic holders (MagClip) instead of suction cups. The difficulty with this item was that MagClips are for tubes, but I cut the…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some flaws
