ok I think you guys are talking about two different things, the surface skimmer for 10 bucks is not a proteen skimmer, all it is, is a add on to your filter that makes it take the water from the surface to get rid of surface skum, it is not a proteen skimmer.

it only works when super clean
Some people have a tidy house and others...well. Blame it on the equipment I guess and toss it out.

CLK: Works great for me. There is a travel of approx 4" for water evaporation. If you maintain your system it works well just like every other piece of equipment.

You are absolutely correct Stircrazy. Do not get it confused with a protein skimmer. I have yet to see a protein skimmer that works on a freshwater tank. Just doesn't work.
