Looking for a skimmer for a small 29 gal. QT

vangoghfish · 01/05/2008, 04:28 PM

Anyone have a skimmer for a small 29 gal. QT tank, don't mind a bit over overkill, but not too much, open to hand on or in very small sump, may put a small deep tuperware container underneath. In my 155 I have an ASM G-3, and in my 75 gal. a remora c pro hang on, love both skimmers, just would like a smaller one for this QT

I got one a little banged up. Nothing structurally wrong just a few blemishes and the collection cup is cracked at the top. Works perfect. PM me in Edison, NJ if interested

90 bucks what i paid for it.

Hang on version correct? Pro model, or lower end model? Pump included, what type? Mag? How much to ship to me in Atlantic City, no rush, so the cheapest way possibly, give me your best price, keeping in mind, I will be buying another collection cup.

Forgot to ask, how far from Atlantic City, close enough to pick up?

Reefvette · 01/06/2008, 11:51 AM

Its is the hangon version, pump included its a mag 900

the collection cup was glued back together. Its works perfectly no reason to replace. I was gonna do the same thing but once i ran the skimmer it worked well so i didnt see a need to replace it.

Im 135 off the parkway so shipping seems better.

i wouldnt do any less than 90 because thats what i paid and i only ran it for a week. I never set up the other tank so i dont need this one.

Will let you know, the skimmer and $90 may be a bit overkill for my 29 gal. QT, which is what I would use it for, will let you know.

Hello, would not mind buying a small footprint in sump skimmer for my 29 gal. QT, thinking of running an overflow filter, to a small vertical tub under stand, and putting in a small footprint skimmer with return to tank, anyone have one, or suggest a brand model to persue?

I have AquaMedic 1000 Multi (hang on ar in sump) $149 pump included

vangoghfish · 01/13/2008, 11:54 AM

Bit pricey, for my 29 gal. QT. even though I now you should always have a much bigger skimmer than needed, probably a bit over kill.

vangoghfish · 01/14/2008, 03:46 PM

Reefvette, $90 including shipping to NJ?

Reefvette · 01/14/2008, 03:59 PM

vangoghfish · 01/14/2008, 04:05 PM

Yes, but a bit far from Atlantic City, I am next to AC< NJ

Reefvette · 01/14/2008, 10:30 PM

I didnt realize that, let me check on shipping to you PM me the zip and theres always a possibility i might head down.

vangoghfish · 01/14/2008, 10:45 PM

hold up, as I may be having a bak-pak 2 shipped to me, if that falls through let me know, my zip is 08406

vangoghfish · 01/16/2008, 09:39 PM

Reefvette, well bak-pak, fell through, was just told it had a bad powerhead, honest enough not to ship it.
Looking at a few other skimmers, what is your best drop dead fred price inclusive of shipping to 08406.
