The aquamaxx hob 1.5 seems like a beast and everyone seems happy with it, but it sticks out much more from the tank.
What are your thoughts and experiences?

I do like it. Pulls fairly dark gross skimmate and is quiet. The only complaint I have is that the pump clogs easily and I need to give it a quick rinse about once a week to get it skimming again. I think this is because I had my back chamber where it lives empty for a year and has a bunch of stuff growing in it
