Just need some advice

Foible · 05/22/2007, 06:23 PM

I have had my 29 gallon (30" x 12" x 18.5") up and running for almost 2 months now. Recently I replaced my 2 maxi-jet 900's with 2 Koralia 1's. Also I have the aquaC Remora Skimmer and am thinking about purchasing the pre-skimmer attachment, so my questions are...
1. What would be the best way for me to place 2 Koralia 1's into my tank?
2. What do you think about the Remora pre-skimmer attachment?

Thanks

I see you haven't had any help yet so I'll do what I can. I don't have Koralia but I have the equivalent Nanostreams. I placed mine at either ends of the tank facing in towards each other. It creates some nice random flow. I have a Remora as well and prefer to use the skimmer without the pre-filter. It's really big, especially for a 29g, and doesn't really do that much imo. Just keep your detritus suspended in the water column with the Koralias and the Remora will take out just fine.

halfway down on each side pointing slightly up back towards the surface, to suspend the detritus like drummer said
