  • Bubble King Skimmer 200 Extern

    I am intressed about how i can do to run this skimmer.
    I have a cabinet beside of my aquarium and wonder how i should get the water to the skimmer. The pump in the skimmer has it a bypass that suck the water from the intern sump in my Aquamedic Percula 90 tank or how should do.
    Have someone a better picture how it look like and how i should do
    or is it to big for my "small" tank

    Best regards

    I'm confused. Is this one of those the filtration is built into the back of the tank things?

        Would the skimmer be next to your tank or above the tank? I think if the skimmer neck is lower than the tank's water level it will overflow.

          Maybe a Deltec MCE 600 is a better option?

            Hello i haved look at the deltec 600 but i dont want this model.
            The skimmer will stand next and above the tank so the outlet will be at the same as the top of the tank

              In that case I don't see a problem with it if you have the space, although it might look a little messy with the plumbing etc. and keep in mind the external skimmer needs a feeder pump.
