HOB : Reef Octopus BH2000 VS Remora-S

HOB : Reef Octopus BH2000 VS Remora-S

For this tank(40 Breeder) all i can do for the sake of space is a HOB Protein Skimmer.

Narrowing it down to 2 choices

-Reef Octopus BH2000

OR

-(The New) Remora-S

Which one do i order tomorrow?

Thanks guys

 

I personally have the RO for my soon to be set up 40b based on recommendations

 

I have the bh1000 on my 40b,I think it's plenty big enough,rated for tanks up to 100 and is quiet.I have no exsperience with remoras.

 

No problems with leaking onto the floor or anything?

Here's my pride and joy. Just added a Diamond Watchman Goby today. The coolest fish so far, he takes a mouthful of sand and sifts the gunk out of it lol. I was amazed to say the least.

 

i currently have it on my 20 and I haven't had any problems. Nice tank Cant wait to get mine set up. What else do you have in there?

 

2 Green Chromis - 2 Bangia Cardinal - 2 cleaner shrimp-1 emerald crab- 5 turbo snails and 7 tiny hermit crabs.

Friday im getting a few more things

But heres a better shot for now

 

very cool. can't wait to see how it progesses

 

Personally I love the BH-2000 as opposed to remora, my friend runs the remora on his 55 and I run the octopus on my 75. It is much quieter than his. I think you could use the BH-1000 on your 40 with no problems at all. The 2000 seems lik some overkill for a 40 gallon, but I guess that depends on what you plan on housing. Either way both skimmers are top notch!

 

My remora is way too loud, and it's not the pump.
