    Helloooo!

    I'm going to get a protein skimmer down the road and I was wondering if this would be a good choice for my biocube 29? It would need to either fit in the second chamber with a media basket or in the first chamber. Does anyone have any experience with it?

    Gracias!:D

    I just purchased one for my 30 gallon which is currently cycling and it spews out TONS of micro bubbles. All of the reviews I've read said it should die down after a week or so once it breaks. It's only been running for about 12 hours so I'll let you know how it works out.

    Mines alright. If i was you, i would get the slim skim nano. My pump on mine isnt running at 100% any more and idk why. It works still tho, very well too. Nice little skimmer for the money, but you get what you pay for...
