great little skimmers. Only issue i had after a year+ was the nylon screws will swell, freeze up and snap over time, but are easily and affordably replaced. marine depot has the screws. still have mine and running it on my tank at work.

Have been running a Q2 on my 120 for a year or so. It was a bit tricky to get dialed in, but has worked great since.

I have the aquamaxx cone 2 on a 130 gallon system and can say it handles a medium load very very well. Super consistent and restarts every time never overflowing. Great value skimmer I didn't thing much of at first. easy to maintain. Would buy again.

I was running the AquaMax S Cone Q2 skimmer and loved it. Just updated my tank and skimmer and now running the Q3. My Q2 is for sale if interested. Check out Used equip & dry good for sale here.
