I am thinking of getting the same Tunze Osmollator that you have. My Elos Osmo is only a single-sensor unit with some nice electronic protections - but a single-sensor unit none the less.
I'll be hooking it up to my Kalk reactor, so it needs to adapt to 1/4" rigid airline. I'll need to get a barb->stem adapter to do this. Do you know what the inside diameter of the Tunze tubing is?

Thanks!
Rroselavy, the measurement of the inner tubing is 1/8 of an inch. Go ahead and buy it... you know you want to.

Equipment: Tunze Nano DOC 9002 Protein Skimmer "Performance"
It is time for my monthly cleaning of the my Tunze Nano DOC 9002 Protein Skimmer, so I thought I would take this opportunity to give everyone some insight on its overall performance. Especially since most people are very interested in moving away from the stock protein skimmers that are usually provided with their nano aquariums. The photographs below span from Monday, September 08, 2008 through Saturday, September 13, 2008. In just less then a full weeks time, the Tunze Nano DOC 9002 Protein Skimmer managed to produce 125 ml of skimmate which is roughly 1/5 of the entire collection cups capacity.

The foam head looks much lie some of the high end skimmers out there, a overflow of brownish cruddy bubbles into the cup. Good stuff.
I bet you would do even better than 125ml overall if you cleaned the cup every other day...
Rroselavy, what I meant by cleaning the protein skimmer was that I actually disconnected entirely from my aquarium and cleaned every component. I wasn't refferring to just emptying the collection cup. I apologize for the confusion.

What kind of tuning adjustments does the 9002 allow?
Rroselavy, the only tuning adjustment that can be made to the Tunze Nano DOC 9002 Protein Skimmer is to adjust the airflow that is introduced to the water via a blue knob on the device.

I managed to get my hands on one of Oceans, Reefs and Aquariums "ORA's" most sought after aquacultured specimens, the Picasso Percula Clownfish. This little guy was purchased from House of Fins in Stamford, CT. According to the store sales people he was a Grade: B Picasso and because of that many people had passed on purchasing him, but not me. This little guy deserved a home in my aquarium and was purchased for a super sale of $80.00 (normally priced at $120.00). Hopefully in the near future I can locate a second Picasso Percula Clownfish to introduce.
