I had bought the same Cherlam skimmer off amazon because it was the cheapest nano skimmer... It was a complete waste. It buzzed like crazy, and didn't even work to skim. Eventually the blue part got sucked down just like you showed and it killed one of my small fish that got trapped in it just like you predicted. Lesson learned
A strong laminar flow in an aquarium with anything that is added rock, coral, plants etc... will create eddy's and turbulence. There is strong opinion out there that turbulent flow or even a combination of both is preferable. I "FEEL" most of this stems from marketing however 🙂
Very interesting, more people should share minimalist coral reef aquariums. Thanks!
Missed your video for a few weeks. Good to see you’re still at it
Great progress my friend. 👌💯✌️
Hey friend.
Haven't seen any videos lately.
I hope that everything is going ok with you.👍🏾

yup, I tried so many ways to make it work for me. I should return it, but I've had it too long now 🙃
First time seeing something like that the second one def had some good circulating flow in that tank
I completely agree, that little one does not kick up the "dirt" at all.
Maybe it's just me, but the only sound I was hearing was the sound of the pump chopping up air in it.👍🏾
I don't think my camera's mic picked it up 🙃
"Bad videographer!"🤣
I was taught that corals want turbulent flow, not flow in one direction. Is that wrong?
