speedy break in period

 

[skratikans]

does tunze make skimmers that can sit outside the tank? Are skimmers placed in the tank better than those you can hang on the outside?

 

[KahluaZzZ]

yes they do make hang on skimmers. But hang on skimmers can be put as "in sump" skimmers. Mine is a hang on but now in sump, and it's better like this, the pump needs less power to lift the water.

this skimmer actually came with the brackets and mount for hangon opperation however it still hangs inside the tank

so...got a verdict ?

 

[TRe]

so far so good .... it started skimming instantly, really happy so far
