## Description

AquaC Remora w/ MaxiJet 1200 Kit Features: Model # : Remora Hang-On Tank Size (Gallons): 20?75 Included Pump: MaxiJet 1200 Skimmer Height: 17.5" Minimum Tank Height: 12.75" Minimum Overhead Clearance for Proper Function: 5.5" Depth: 2.75" Width: 6"The revolutionary AquaC protein skimmers do not use venturis, downdraft tubes, or air pumps; they employ the patented "Spray Injection System." This innovation allows the protein skimmer to efficiently draw in much more air than any other of the top protein skimmers. This coupled with the superiorly designed compact reaction chamber yields results that will literally blow the waste out of your water."For its compact size and simple design, The AquaC protein skimmer is able to process a large volume of water and efficiently remove organic pollutants. I`m very happy with it!"Fernando Nosratpour, Senior AquaristBirch Aquarium at ScrippsIf you are searching for the most compact, efficient, and powerful hang-on-tank skimmer on the market, look no further. AquaC has finished development of the Remora - the most radical design in skimming to date! Using the same patent pending spray-induction system as their acclaimed in-sump skimmers, AquaC`s Remora is simply the best hang-on available today. The Remora is rated up to 75 gallons and requires a scant 2.75" clearance from the back of the tank. That is slim! You`ll appreciate its low profile, only 6" of vertical clearance is required. Standard equipment include a Maxi-Jet 1200 water pump, adjustable collection cup, and a special baffle system which prevents any bubbles from entering the aquarium.The AquaC Remora Series is the first hang-on protein skimmer under $250 to be able to generate a dry consistency of foam that previously only an in-sump "super-skimmer" is capable of. This is especially true of the AquaC Remora Pro.Maxi-Jet 1200 Powerhead features: High performance with low power consumption May be used externally or submerged Waterproof rotating w

    Not bad, but really needs improved instructions
  

*by M***W on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2012*

I bought this protein skimmer from someone used and it was missing the lid on the collection cup.  I have the model with the collection cup that has the drain on the side.  This is a nice feature as I can keep a 5 gallon bucket under my tank and have all of the dirty water go there.  This allows me longer in between having to fool with this cup.  It did have the normal break in period where there were a lot of micro bubbles.  I am running it on a 75 gallon tank which is the highest amount it is rated for.Pros: - It seems to work well once you figure it out. - It is a HOB which is nice because I don't have a sump under my tank - It is easy to start running. - Great customer service.  When I bought mine, it was missing the top of the collection cup.  I email the company and they got back to me quickly.  They offered to send me a new one for what I considered a very reasonable price (around 5 dollars with shipping).  This is much cheaper than I was finding them for on Ebay.  I sent them the money and had the part in no time.Cons: - Instructions are terrible.  No where could I find information on how to adjust the amount of skimming that I was doing.  Since I bought it used, the O ring on the cup was a little worn and it kept sinking under the weight of everything.  This caused it to really drain water.  I was losing 5 gallons in just a few hours.  It was to the point that I would leave it off most of the time until I figured it out.  For those wondering, the higher the collection, the more really dirty water you will pull and still have water in your tank when you get home.If it weren't for the terrible instructions and all the frustration I had in trying to get this to work, I would have rated it higher.  I hope that my trials and tribulations will help someone else.

    so far so good
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2012*

just received the aqua c remora with the mj 1200. i took a little time cleaning it but was well worth it. it took literaly 5 minutes to hook it up, and pluggred it in. some reviews said it was going to be loud but im used to the crappy seaclone (seaclown) but not bad at all. ill give another review about week see how it is going. i give it 4 stars but i think it is going to be a 5 star. it is also well built , not sure if  going to get the skimmer add on though ,that seems a little bulky.
