I want to know who all has an Aqua Remora running on their tanks. I'm trying to make a decision on what skimmer to buy. Right now it's either 20vturbo's Aqua Remora (if he doesn't sell it) or a new Tunze Nano skimmer.

What's your opinion on the Aqua Remoras? I've they are loud, from people saying they couldn't have a conversation around it, to not very loud
 
I had a aqua remora on my 75gal tank and I thought it was loud. I've got a Tunze on my 30gal and it is very quiet. I like the nano because you can easily adjust how you want to skim, ie wet vs dry. Also, since Tunze is in Austin, if you have any problems, the turn around is very quick.
 
i have a aqua remora on my 40g but mine is in sump not hang on mines not loud at all and i run it with a mag 5 i would say it works and u can adjust how wet or dry u want the skim mate to be he had it at a great price i dont know how much more loud that one could be only from the return dropping the water in u could always get a peice of acrylic to make the water run down and not drop off
 
So what is a nice quiet HOT skimmer for a 75 gallon? We have our 75 gallon in the bedroom and the coralife skimmer 120 (I think) is extremely loud and my wife won't let me run it at night. So I need to replace it. Any suggestions?

I've got a Remora. and replaced it with the Tunze. I still have the remora with 2 collection cups if the first one falls through for you.
