Dry
| General |
I've had this skimmer now for over two yrs. You can tell by looking at this skimmer it is a well built skimmer and should last for yrs. I have a mag 7 pump that was recommended for use with this skimmer. The skimmer works well but Ive found it will only skim very dry. Ive tried readjusting it daily or just leaving it be and no matter what I try its still dry. I hear stories of folks who get a cup a day well these skimmer will not do that. I have called the manufacture several times and have been told that the wetness of the skim mate doesnt matter its just added water. I will say the manufacturer rep was extremely helpful he even sent me a larger injector at no cost along with larger hose. I would recommend this skimmer but I would warn you "you wont be collecting wet skim mate". |

Decent skimmer but not my first choice
| General |
The Aqua-C EV180 is an OK skimmer. I would not be purchasing another one again though. It does not produce near as much skimmate as my ASM, Reef Octopus or my Red Sea C-skim 1200. I run a mag 5 for a feed pump and hav an ATO so the water level in the sump is the same all the time. I would definitely spend a little more money and go with a Reef Octopus or an ASM. |

It is small enough to fit inside of a sump easily and is a pretty basic design. good overall fit and finish
