Yes, its better to overpower the skimmer rather then underpower it. Anyway the Weipro is quite value for money. Was a Weipro user before switching to a Macro. Both performs equally better except that the Macro have a bigger reaction chamer then the Weipro and can produce more bubbles. The Macro tends to produce finer bubbles then the Weipro i believe. Thats why some ppl prefer to use the Macro. Hehe just my 2 cents worth.. :) Cheers!

I'm using a Weipro 2014 and thinking of changing to the Macro needlewheel. Anyone knows if its worth it to change or not much difference? And also which model to go for? The biggest? My tank's 4X1.5X2.

don't waste your money, is the same.Bought a AS300p.regret.

Does your 2014 make a lot of kopi-o?

do you think two 2012 is more powerful than a 2014? thanks

i seriously think more options of skimmer should be added to have a wider range for selection. :upsidedown:

H & S and beckett and others should be added... :pirate:

this can be another thread for ppl to compare the above mentioned skimmers

I am just an average FR (fish reefing) writer. If you like my FRs, please upz my points.

I think a good or bad skimmer got 80% to do with your tuning. With weipro I can get wet dark skimmate, with Macro venturi I can get very dry foam and skimmate.

im using a macro as-100 but cant get dark skimmate..all i can get is only brown water...can anyone teach me hw to get skimmate like those frm the neck of the collection cup??? :thanks: a million :bow::bow::bow:

Try lowering the air intake to create a finer jet of bubbles...

Finer bubbles = Dryer skimate

anyone use this before? The price just $135 dun know good anot?

The DYMAX Protein Skimmer is a highly performance protein extractor. It’s powerful injection flow rate pumped into the reacting chamber, producing tremendous number of tiny bubbles. The foam collected by the skimmer are made up by protein and other organic compound. These organic waste must be removed before they turn into nitrate and nitrite. The fine bubbles produces by the skimmer also helps to increase oxygen dissolved and ORP (oxidation reduction potential) level.
