Hey guys I'm picking up an AquaMaxx HOB Series 1 Protein Skimmer tomorrow. I was wondering what your thoughts where on how well of a skimmer it is and how well it'll be on a 20 gallon long and maybe upgrade to a 55?

When I was newer to the hobby I got the same skimmer on my 75 gal reef, it handled it like a boss. So u putting it on a 20 will be cake walk. I learned when I bogged my aquamaxx it was time to move on lol so I got a omaga 150. The aquamaxx is a work horse with that pump, there is some micro bubbles tho. I had mine in a sump so it did not bother me at all but as a hang on... Thats your call.
 
Alright thank you I really appreciate that! I've had so many crappy ones offered for sale and I finally found a good one!

When if I upgrade to a 55 it'll become a sump one but at the moment on the 20 it'll be hob

The air intake on the pump clogs with salt and needs to be cleaned often. Other than that, I love mine.
