Description
A replacement mount for the Ice Cap K1-50 skimmer that fits a 10mm rimless aquarium glass, designed to fit in the rear chamber of a Red Sea MAX E170. I made this mount to replace the default one that did nothing to clamp to the glass on its own, instead trying to clamp the skimmer to the glass with just the grabbing of the mount on the skimmer body, but also to get the water depth more in line with the skimmer's recommendations. I also made a smaller mount that you can screw the silencer into, instead of in the skimmer cup, to keep the height above the aquarium down and give you space for extra tubing on the input for further reduced noise. The skimmer cup protrudes above the baffle for the rear chamber in the E170, but the base of the cup is hidden.
