I have a 55 gallon reef with a ten gallon sump and refugium no baffles and a rio 2500 return pump my stand slants inward so i cant get a bigger sump my seaclone is doing great i here its a hit or miss skimmer so i guess mine is a hit running it in sump but i wanted to replace it with my red sea skimmer only problem is the return pipesticks a little bit out ok f the tank so iwas thinking 1 cut the pvc extending out from the skimmer or cut the base holder thing that keeps it up and i have been told the rio pump is the pump that the skimmer uses but where can i buy the front peice that holds the air line tubing? here some pics of the seaclone 1 day of skimming

mine is in sump i take it u ran urs hang on back on ur 10 gallon right?

o and for about 8 hours of the 24 my sump was disconnected so i dont think it was pulling anything then

 

[tracyt88]

yes, I ran it for a week and half it didnt pull any thing out.... but it could have been that it was on too small of a tank

my berlin skimmer is the classic i want to know where the venturi goes because online it looks like it goes after the pump? but there is a srew in the way or a bolt or something heres the picks

help Any one plz can i just cut off some of the outlet tube or run it externally and can i use any pump with it i got it for free with a 125 gallon and a sump no pump

it goes after the pump but I am unsure about the "screw thing". I would try to convert it to a pre-pump venturi (aspirated as some call it) if possible.
