I switched from a vertex omega 130 to a tunze 9410DC recently on my 130g cube.
I am very happy with the consistency and performance (and lack of overflowing!), however, it isn't all that quiet. Audibly it seems on par with the vertex. I don't think it's pump noise, it's more like the rumble of air being chopped up by the needle-wheel, at least I think. Is there anything quieter out there that can still compete with the performance of the tunze? |

They rarely have the website up. They sell on eBay but it says away for now and it happens like every other month.. I think he is small but get so many orders he has to catch up.. His prices are real good...

9410 is normally a louder skimmer since the pump does'nt have any vibration cush due to the hard plumb at the side. they perform well though

Just picked up the Deltec MCE600 HOB and feel like it was a big mistake!
Bunch of micro bubbles, collection cup overfilling when not tweaked properly and when feeding frozen food and what not. Sheesh. To get it to skim, had to restrict air; but when you do, the outlet pipe just pours micro bubbles. Big design flaw all around! And a big disappointment. Anybody know how to remedy this? Has anyone actually downgraded the pump? |

Just got the Aquamaxx sump skimmer ws-1 and want to know where I can get a longer tubing to connect the safe drain from collection cup. I believe it's a 10MM inner diameter?
I also have the water line sitting at about 10.5", think it may be a little too much, so I'll try raise it up a bit. Right now, it's overflowing, even with the cup at the highest sitting. Thinking of using egg crate to raise the height a bit? Thanks |
