  • Can you give us tips on what the water level should be?

  • @allstarlaxplaya4 my review is coming out today

  • I've purchased a BioCube 29 and I can't seem to get the water level right. The pump keeps exhausting it's own water supply but it doesn't seem to start correcting itself until the tank is so full of water that it starts to pour into the 3rd chamber where the pump is - but then it's not going through the filter properly.

  • @PookaKit did you fill up the tank so that the water level is just below the black rim

  • I uploaded a video in my channel, you can take a look and see if you we have the same problem.

  • Please update,I am running the same skimmer one week already, I only get fizzle. I have to turn it off during the night. Dose it matter?

  • @guanglei19831025 Mine fizzles too, im not to impressed so far. And i turn mine off at night because it is to loud for me and I like it quiet when i sleep :P

  • @ArcAngel9008 I highly doubt if this thing really work. It dose make bubble noise. Thank you for your video, please keep everybody update.

  • How’s it going so far? I've got the same skimmer now on my Biocube HQI and all it does is fizzle too. I've been running mine for about 2 weeks now and no change. How do you have yours set? My air intake is like yours in the video and the water height is a little less than half way up the neck. I've seen one other video of this skimmer on YouTube and that one actually had skimmate. So, I am wondering how long it takes to break in or what setting do you have to have to get it to produce skimmate.

  • @CBoneDeluxe I'll try to get an update out to everyone soon, I've been gone almost a week so I have to make sure everything is running normally. And Ive been running my skimmer now for about 2 weeks as well

  • pretty awesome cant wait to get my biocube.

  • I have this skimmer on my 28g for about 3 months now and it works great for me.

    How is it working out for you?

    sign me up for the contest :)

  • @saltyreef10 so far not so hot...not to crazy about it...it doesnt foam up to the top and produce skimmate. just fizzes....

  • contestttt!!! let us know about the protein skimmer!! im interested in a 29 bio cube

  • @xjustblazeitx I'll keep you posted

  • Please let us know which skimmer runs quieter, has easier installation, and how often collection cup must be emptied.

    Appreciate the Great Videos

  • @MetalArm3 Will do!

  • Didn't know about this product, thanks. I am actively searching for a skimmer myself. I almost pulled the trigger on the AquaMaxx HOB-1 skimmer just before Christmas. Then I realized that I really want one that can live in chamber 1 of my Biocube HQI without modding. That also ruled out the AquaticLife skimmer. The Oceanic model that came with my Biocube was useless and quickly tossed. Will be eagerly awaiting your next update.

  • @jnrandall The aquaticlife does fit in chamber one...Check out my video on it ;) i"ll send it to you in a pm

  • Hey, nice tank. But is the nano skimmer loud at all. I just would like a quiet skimmer.

  • @saltyhamms I think if you will be keeping this skimmer in a cabinet it will be fine. Personally, I shut the darn thing off before i go to sleep at night, I dont like to hear the gurgling when im trying to go to sleep. but if it is going in a family room and not a bedroom, i dont think you will notice it.

  • @ArcAngel9008 ok, thanks.

  • Keep us posted on how it is comparing to your old one. Thanks

  • @uhupong will do!

  • keep us informed on the skimmate it pulls out. The BC protein skimmer has never pulled to much out for me. Would like to see one of the nano skimmers actually work.

  • @soverjas I'll keep you posted!

  • the tank is looking good is it hard to keep up a bio cube i was told they are

  • @sdottone smaller aquariums are hard to take care of because water parameters can change faster

  • Is there anything wrong with the aquatic life skimmer? I just ordered my tank (finally) and the protein skimmer will be my very first mod.

  • @MetalArm3 Nothing is wrong with the aquaticlife skimmer, i wanted to try out this new skimmer and do a product review

  • hey will that fit a 14 gallon biocube

  • @209bdawg i dont know if the 14 is the same as the 29...but as long as chamber one is at least 3.5 inches it will fit

  • @ArcAngel9008 ok ill just ask my local fish thanks..

  • One question... does the chamber 1 cover still fit or do you have to keep it open in the back now?

  • @CBoneDeluxe The cover fits no problem ;)

  • get product review man keep it up

  • I still have hopes that you will be able to gather the money to get a AI sol or nano. I have no doubt you will figuring out an acceptable way to attractively attach it to your bio cube. Perhaps you will get a large tax refund? I think an LED light will be one of the best upgrades you make to this system. (next to the sump and controller of course...) Personally, I plan to start my system with the ecotech radion, and Yes, that will cost be a pretty penny! Cheers!

  • @sjj710 hahaa thank you...Hopefully LED's will be in my future. Wow the radion huh...thats a nice investment. Look forward to seeing a video!

  • @ArcAngel9008 Yes, your vids inspired me to model my build off your cube system, only a bit bigger 24x24x24 (60Gals). The Radion will cover that perfectly, (I hope...) :-)

  • @sjj710 Yes i think that light will be perfect! combine that light with Vortech W powerhead and it will be awesome!

  • @ArcAngel9008 I plan on that combo. When I think of the cost of all this equipment it gives me a slight head ache. I'm going to need my own large tax refund.....

  • @sjj710 hahaa, i know the feeling...

  • I hope this skimmer works well for you, if it does i will look into getting one for my self.

  • @mithorr123 I will let you know my thoughts on it in my product review.

  • Cute lil skimmer might be just the right size for that 10g I've been wanting to build

  • @4thGloryMonday I think it would be perfect for a 10 gallon system. Stay tuned for my review

  • I agree the intro is way cool. Nice work. I also like Marine Depot. I just don't like how long it takes to receive the packages. Have a great Christmas!

  • @adjusterfrank They usually ship the day after the order for me. since it is coming from Cali it usually takes 3-5 days for delivery. Glad you enjoyed the video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

  • Kool little gadget man... What size tank is it rated for

  • @bikeboss11 box says it is rated for tanks up to 24 gallons

  • Nice clear video . . . in fact, very impressive intro; interesting that you have used the setting of a movie theater -- nicely done. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

  • @russmaleartist Thank you. Intro is compliments of a fellow youtuber. Merry Chrismas and happy new year to you too! :D

  • looks cool man, I really hope it does better than the Hydor slimskim series :P

    always a plesure watching ur vids man, keep em comin. Thumbs up!

  • @djruth62 hahaaa, thanks. stay tuned for my review :)

  • how many gallon is it for 30 and down

  • @Aperfectcircle5 the box says it is rated for tanks up to 24 gallons

  • So are you running double skimmers, being your new skimmer and your old aquatic life one or did you get rid of your old one?

  • @Fishkeeper96 no I am only running one skimmer...but the aquatic life skimmer is still in the sump until i decide which skimmer i like

  • Looking foward to the review. I looking to replace my skimmer.

  • @sdch1000 Give me at least 2 weeks before i do a review.

  • Can't wait for the review!

  • @michaelsan5437 Give me at least 2 weeks before i do a review.

  • Thumbs up for another great video. I love the epic intro!!!!!!!!!!

  • @reptilejones thanks...intro compliments of a fellow youtuber :)
