i've purchased a river reef 94ltr, i changed out both pumps for 2 maxijet 1000ltr's. i took the lid of as i'm using 2 27w 38par spot LEDS, which i get a good shimmer effect it's 12000k bulbs & as good as my large tank which has 400w MH lighting.
i've also got a refugium on the back full of kent marine bio sediment with some cheato & a pod light above it. i also have a kent marine nautilus phos reactor on the outside of the tank. now i want to upgrade the skimmer,
i have a boyu 310 originally bought for my orca 450, now i broke the 450 so bought the river reef as a second tank.
it's filled with 2kg rubble in first 2 compartments & 8kg LR in display tank, all cured before buying.
i bought some white square frag racks & placed on the tank floor & added a new bag of live sand & topped it of with tmc 4kg larger size crushed coral plus a small amount of sand from my large tank.
so it's been a week & now the refugium & phos reactor are set up & running i want to turn my head to a good skimmer.
their are 2 skimmers that caught my eye 1 was the Hydor Slim Skim Nano 135 Internal Protein Skimmer.
the other was the Tunze Nano DOC Protein Skimmer 9002 the secong skimmer might be 2 big to get into my tank the c cup looks big, & as the 2 pumps which came with the tank are been used for my refugium & my phos reactor,
there is some flexi pipe across the top of the chambers which might catch on the tunze collection cup, both will fit the third chamber here's a pic it's easier to see than to explain the tank will be lps-sps & 2/3 fish + couple shrimp & cuc at most i want a coral tank.
anyway any thoughts on the skimmer please give me your 2 cents worth cheers jack...
