yes please!Was there a redesign with this skimmer? My first one stopped producing bubbles and I was unable to fix it so I ordered a new one.
The new one has what looks like a new venturi intake that is curved instead of flat and a redesigned silencer
The new intake seems to produce more bubbles than before. The new silencer seems a little louder with a very noticable sucking noise. However I attached the silencer from the original skimmer which I had modified and now its near silent with just a little bit of pump noise. As I sit now about 4 feet away from the tank Its not a distraction at all and when the house AC turns on you cant even hear it
Happy to post pics of the silencer mods if anyone is interested.
Kind of upset. I was dead set on buying this but instead wound up getting the Aquamaxx HOB 1 on clearance. The Aquamaxx is a beast but its rather huge and cumbersome. Literally the day after hooking up my Aquamaxx i got emails saying the Icecap was back in stock, what are the odds? Oh well, i think ill just keep the Aquamaxx. I can always use the Aquamaxx on my next tank seeing as its rated for 75 gallons or so.
Just to add on to this thread, as I’m sure others will find it as I did, I am hoping this helps. I decided to go with the k1 nano. Arrived today (amazon prime ). No instructions as mentioned. Still, I was able to get it set up and installed. First impressions: some noise, but not as loud as the ghost I had so it’s not a deal breaker. Micro bubbles: yes of course as expected but not a ton and I’m hoping they’ll go away as they did when I first set up the ghost. Adjusting/tuning: I went with the coral vue recommendation (YouTube vid) and have it set for the break in period. It IS a bit finicky but I have found it easier to set than the Ghost. So far so good.
How's it performing today?
Hey - how's your Nuvo Skim working these days? Still recommend? ThxNothing to tune on the Nuvoskim other than the height of the collection cup. Let it run for awhile and you’ll be amazed of what it can do!
Took about 2 months for it really run well. I can get wet or dry skim very easily by adjust the height of cup.
The dry skim I would get is super dark. Been spot feeding the corals so there’s plenty to get out of the water.
IF you own an IM AIO tank , look no further in my opinion. Works and looks great!
All I run on my nanos is the IceCap K1. By far the best nano skimmer out there. I've tried the aqua Maxx, not a bad choice, but ZERO customer service if needed, and finnicky. Anything goes wrong, might as well throw it away and buy another. IceCap has a reputable name and when something is needed, call them and they ship it outAny updates on the nano skimmer game?! I'm debating between a Tunze 9004, IM Nuvo DC Skimmer, Eshopps Nano, or a Aqua Maxx 1.5 for a 40 gallon all-in-one IM system.
Leaning towards Tunze as not a lot known about the newer IM Nuvo... and prefer not to have an HOB... although the Aqua Maxx 1.5 sounds phenomenal...
