I've had no luck with the ELOS Natural 500 skimmer. It's skimmed a total of 0 oz. of skimmate in 2 years. I've tried to replace the pump, change the venturi tube length, different water levels, etc. and have been talking to Jesse about it, but never figured it out. My small tunze nano 9002 skimmer pulls a lot more out in the same tank.
In preparation for a bunch of little clownfish and possible nems pooping like crazy, I want to replace the ELOS. I don't think the ELOS is defective, I think I'm just incapable of getting it to work for some reason =( Afterall, it's just some clear plastic. No weird holes or leaks or any strange blemishes.
So what's the best skimmer to get that will still fit in my sump? I have 36" of vertical room to work with, but the sump itself doesn't have the largest footprint.
What's the absolute top 5 skimmers that will fit a footprint of 6" x 6"?
