I am still very pleased with this unit. Generates lots of bubbles but none get into the tank. Excess water leaves the bottom of the skimmer not through a hose attachment like some other skimmers. In the bottom of the skimmer a 2" deep piece of high density foam was installed. This is installed to catch bubbles before they enter the display tank.

I found that the supplied sponge was too dense and quickly got plugged with detritis. So I swapped it for a less dense sponge. It still catches bubbles but does not get clogged up. I find it still worthwhile to clean during every water change.

I am still trying to find the ultimate setting for this skimmer. I still have a fairly light bioload but I still want to generate more skimmate even if it is thin.
