Even though I have a Fluval G3 Canister Filter that is working quite well for me now, I have been thinking that I would like to replace the coral insert after I have obtained all my other equipment and place in some live rock and maintain some high end SPS Coral. So I'm in the market currently for a new hang on back protein skimmer. I'm interested in the Reef Octopus BH-1000 Hang on Back Protein Skimmer. So I created this little overhead schematic to have one of the online retailers to check with the protein skimmer manufacturer to see if it would fit on the rear of my aquarium and clear all the current equipment I have installed.

    It's really small back there, but I know that Tunze makes very small skimmers. Of course, an airstone driven skimmer might suffice as well.

    Tunze makes the Nano DOC Skimmer which would fit in the right rear compartment if I didn't have other equipment in there. Unfortunately the compartment on the left only goes down about 5 or 6 inches which prevents me from placing much in there. Hence the reason I'm looking at the Reef Octopus BH-1000 Hang On Back Skimmer.
