Hey all.

For me new 135, I'm grappling with a place to put my skimmer. No room in the refugium sump, and I do not have space under the stand. I am thinking about using one in the tank though, on the overflow which is very big. The question though is - will it work submerged?

In other words, the overflow has a Durso standpipe in it, which raises the water level. Ergo, placing a Remora skimmer (for instance) in the overflow, it would be submerged. Anyone have comments on this?

I don't think that will work very well. You might consider a hang-on skimmer on the rear of the tank?
