    CPR Bak Pak 2

    Got the skimmer the other day, and is installed and working. My question is how far should the bubbles go up the collection cup tube?

    Question about power heads

    Its a Maxi Jet 1000, I havent seen any 1000s lately maybe they stopped making them? but it says 291 gph. I put it in the tank and everything is looking good. I need to get some new mounting brackets for it, does anybody know where I can just get the bracket and not the pump?

    Question about power heads

    Thanks for all the advice, I put the Maxi-jet in and it really moved the water around so I got worried and took it out. Looks like Ill be putting it back-in:)

    Question about power heads

    I have a 29 gal reef tank and am currentley running a cheap walmart regent powerhead, it works well, but I also have a Maxi Jet 1000 sitting around that I would like to put in place of the cheaper regent. But Im afraid it might be to powerfull for such a small tank. What do you think?

    CPR Bak Pak 2

    OK. I bought the skimmer off E-bay brand new for $60 without the powerhead, but I have a Maxi-jet 1000 that I am doing the mesh mod to, I know the CPR comes with a 1200 Maxi-jet is the 1000 Maxi jet going to work? or should I buy a 1200

    CPR Bak Pak 2

    Thanks for the info, Im acually working on that mod as we speak. Also what about the media they give you, that blue stuff that looks like shredded paper, does it serve a purpose, Ive read people saying to lose the media all-together?

    So I should look towards a good skimmer, rather than a canister filter? Also witch is better, AquaC Remora or CPR Bak-Pak
