Skimmer Broke

[chubble]

I have a 40 gallon breeder and my super skimmer 120 pump broke and they are sending me a new one but it will take 7 to 10 day to get to me and my tank is becoming cloudy because I don't have a skimmer.

Does any one have a decent skimmer lying around that I can borrow for a week. My compartment in my sump is 7x10. Please help

The LFS you purchased it from should be more than willing to loan you one of their used unit's. May be worth a try to also get one of the HOB filters to run carbon etc in also.

Cheers,

Also, do a water change. That is a simple fix during this period.

Where are you located? I have a spare hang on skimmer, works fairly well once you get it going.

You should be OK for 7 days by running carbon and doing a few water changes.
