Tunze Skimmer
Tunze Skimmer
Got all of my upgrades Today. Tunze Osmolator , Neptune Aquacontoller Jr , Tunze Skimmer.
The only chamber that looks like it will accept the Skimmer is the middle. However the brackets there need to be removed.
Does anyone have any experience on removing the brackets that are connected to the plastic walls without damaging anything.

Here is mine i need to get an updated pic with the new rock design and the anenome and Clowns. I currently have a CPR HOB refuge on the back but i am not sure if this is going to stay b/c i would like to get 2 Phoban reactors and i do not know where to put them. I too am having microbubbles but i upgraded the pump to a rio 2500. The middle section is full of rock rubble. I also have 2 K1's and 1 K2. I added the Tunze top off with kalk reactor attached to a 10g tank behind stand. I also have the RK2 controller. I am having a hard time with the skimmer b/c my water level changes a little b/c the filter pad gets full, but will have to see as the top off was added yesterday.

I wanted to share the upgrades with everyone. Hope you enjoy.
Here is the Tunze Skimmer upgrade I completed this week. The plastic wall which separated the old skimmer compartment and the filter and media compartment had to be taken down.
But the end result is a much quiter skimmer with no microbubbles.
The next upgrade was the Tunze Osmolator just removed the auto top off bottles and the holding plate and simple install.
Finally the aquacontroller one of the best moves I have ever made. And has already made aqua life better.

Hi everyone. All the pictures look great, hope to have mine looking just as great soon. I just set mine up today, upgraded from a 24 gallon Aquapod. Can anyone tell me when the microbubble's will stop? Hard to place my rock when I can't see anything. I have not upgraded any of the equipment, only using what came with it. Did I set something up wrong or does it just take time to settle down? Any help is appreciated.
