WTB: In sump protein skimmer
 
looking for an in-sump protein skimmer in Edmonton. The sump is only about 10-15 gallons so the skimmer must be able to operate at 5-6 inches of water depth. It is for a 30 gallon tank. I was looking to get a tunze nano or hydor nano slim but i am not even sure if 5-6 inches of water is tall enough for these skimmers.

Please let me know what you have, thanks!

Just measured the Tunze, needs at least 8"

I have Rio Nano Protein skimmer, works great, pulling lots of skimmate, but it's a real pain to setup, it's a HOB, and it's cheap. less than $40
I have it on my 20 gallon Long Nano tank

I have a fair amount of glass if you wanted to make a taller/larger sump. Free to good home lol

Thanks to scubadawg for the nice skimmer
