Remora Aqua C HOB Skimmer

So, I finally came to the realization that with my wife Stacy due in December, finances low for various reasons and a general lack of time - mostly because of business issues - I will NOT have time to build my sump/fuge and do everything the way I want to.

So, I bought a Remora Aqua C HOB Skimmer and installed it today.

I did not get the surface skimming box, unfortunately. But it installed easily and startup was a breeze. Hopefully this will help clean up the tank and get rid of that pesky scum layer I have been wicking off the surface with paper towels a few times each week.

The unit seems to be pretty nice. It’s small... relatively quiet... (although it’s located in my son’s bedroom and my wife thinks it is too noisy) I guess we’ll see how it all works out!
