Aquamaxx HOB-1 Skimmer

Would this be overkill on a 29gallon Biocube with a pair of clowns, and at most 5 corals?

Its not overkill persay but you will go some time without emptying it. I have one on my biocube and I only have the 2 clowns, six line wrasse, and a blenny.

Really also matters how much you feed as well for the export...

I love this skimmer for the cube as I did not have luck with some of the other ones before making the switch.

Thnks. I have a TUnze 9001 and not a big fan. It's quiet, but extremely sensitive, not to mention getting the lid off the cup sucks.
