    Hey all i was wondering if anyone was using the eshopps HOB skimmers. I need one with a smaller foot print so i am looking into new skimmers. So any reviews would be nice.

    Aquac makes a smaller remora for a hob

    IMO,alot of the HOB skimmers downt work as well as as an In Sump style skimmer.However,there are some good companies that can produce a good skimmer.I have have yet to used a Eshopps but I do belive that Remora's are probobly better.

    from what I have heard the eshopps is better than the aquac remora.

    Reefmonkey I know has one and loves it. Actually I think he has a couple now.
