Has anyone used one of these skimmers? I have a JBJ 12 gallon nano reef and was curious of what people think of it and is it worth the 85.00 price tag? Would a lee's skimmer with airstone do the same thing or another skimmer? Is it worth putting a skimmer on my tank? I have some zoe's and lps corals and a couple of clown fish hermits snails etc. Thanks !

Your welcome,.I did use the air stone akommwr for awhile and it just did not do much, if this will fit in your tank I would go this way,.this was the third skimmer I tried .

I think the glass would look best inside the tank. But if you are putting it in the sump, save some money. The Lee's air driven simmer doesn't look nearly as nice, but gets decent reviews.
