I own a Red Sea Prizm. Consequently, I get no skimmate.

Well with my remora my only option is wet skimate....but I don't mind cause it's too easy to replenish what you've lost with wet skim. On the same note I haven't moded my remora yet with a "2/4L" bottle, anyone done that yet. I just want to make sure I don't crack the skimatecup when I drill out a hole for a flow tube.

Haha, thanks for the laugh I would more accuratly state that "You get no skimmate in the cup as it all overflows onto your carpet".

Red Sea should just stop building skimmers.

I have a Red Sea Prism on my 29 and it works good for this size of tank. Granted I havn't tried any other brands but I get quite a bit of skimmate.

I empty my cup every 3 days or so and its certainly not wet , certainly not of the weak stomach!
