    Has anyone had any experience with the Hydor Slim Skim Nano skimmer? I have an Oceanic HQI cube and am looking to put a skimmer in the 1st or 3rd chamber (Middle is a Refugium)?

    I have the junk Oceanic bubble skimmer in there now and am looking to upgrade it.

    If you know of a better skimmer that will work in those chambers just let me know.

    Thanks for your input.

    I bought an aquaticlife 115 that fits in 1rst chamber. I am happy with it so far. Have had it about 1 month now. You do have to do an air line mod to it that is easy. Also took about 3 days to start working good.

    I looked at that one as well but having to modify it made me a little nervous since I'm not the most handy guy in the world.

    Thanks for your input.

    Im running the aquatic life 115 also in my sump for my marineland 30 gallon cube. It works great. And the air line mod is very simple to do. Takes like 5 minutes. From all my research ive done it seems to be one of the best nano skimmers

    Thanks Kim, I guess that 2 for Aquatic Life 115. I do like the fact that's it's about 1/2 of the other skimmer. I might have to give it a try.
