Stuck between two skimmers. Helppp

[bignick]

I HAVE A 29 BIO-CUBE. I HAD A BIO-CUBE PROTEIN SKIMMER BUT IT SUCKED SO IM LOOKING FOR A NEW ONE.

I AM STUCK BETWEEN THESE TWO SKIMMERS THE AQUAMAX HOB-1 HONG ON BACK PROTEIN SKIMMER AND THE TUNZE NANO DOC 9002.

AQUAMAXSKIMMER: http://www.marinedepot.com/AquaMaxx...n_Skimmers-AquaMaxx-UJ1151-FIPSHONW-0-vi.html

TUNZESKIMMER: http://www.marinedepot.com/Tunze_Na...100_Gallons-Tunze-TZ5311-FIPSISVSUH-4-vi.html

IM LOOKING FOR ANY GOOD OR BAD FEEDBACK

ONLY THING IS, IF I GET THE AQUAMAX I WOULD BE ABLE TO KEEP MY FUGE IN THE MIDDLE CHAMBER BECAUSE THE TUNZE WOULD HAVE TO BE PLACED THERE

ALSO THE TUNZE CALLS FOR 7'- 8.6" OF WATER DEPTH AND I ONLY HAVE A LITTLE OVER 5"

are u planning on keeping sps? dont really see a reason to run a skimmer on a nano as long as you do weekly water changes.. i have a jbj 28 gal with 4 clams /lps/ sps etc and run no skimmer.. my phos is .00-.02. nitrate 0.

i like the tunze, clean install. Very quite, and pulls great skim.

 

[jcs11236]

yes sir

Had the 9002 and switched to the aquamaxx. The aquamaxx is a much better built skimmer and gives you a lot more for your money. It makes better skimmate, and is less finnicky. The tunze also requires a constant water level to function correctly which was pretty annoying. The only negative to the aquamaxx is it is a little louder than the tunze. IMO no question get the aquamaxx.
