I ordered the size I needed for my 20 gallon tank. The back portion is clear plastic that you cut to fit around any pumps etc. It is well put together and arrived in good condition.

It should. Depth is at the limit I would say. I have a 360 Gallon Tank, it is 36" deep, and two of them would NOT work for that tank....IMO you are on the edge. Crypts/Anubias/Stems that grow tall - definitely. Dwarf Sag would grow, but happy? Not sure. Sorry if this leaves you still wondering - but I would be wrong to say most def....maybe someone who has it in similar depth could offer more firm answer. I have a 70 Show - same depth, but less W and it would have worked (decommissioned tank for other reasons).

Hi, Thanks for contacting us. This is a standard skimmer box and it will work with any standard size pump.

sorry bought this for a 10 gallon not sure about a 36 gallon. Might call or go into your local pet shop and find out than compare prices. My local Petco is cheaper on some things then Amazon is.

Sorry for my delayed response... I already installed the pump and it's at one of my rentals... the only helpful info I think that I can give you is the manufacturers box that the pump came in dimensions....The box is 7.5" wide x 10.25" long x 10.25" tall(outside measurement). The footprint of the pump is smaller than this so it sounds like it should work. The float goes straight up and down so it needs no more room than that. Hope that helps you! It appears to be a very solid built pump!

This barely cleared a 75 gallon tank. I would look for a commercial unit. Maybe call your local aquarium and ask the maintenance or facilities personnel where they get theirs.

I have one of these on my 140g. It works great but I also have a Emporer bio wheel, the bigger one. It depends on what you are keeping. I have big carnivores so I have to do twice a week water changes and extra filtration. I do recommend this pump.

It should work fine, depending on your bioload or amount and type of "pooduction". I used this on my 55g and it did well. It can be a pain to dial in, but it starts producing skimmate almost immediately. I had a hard time with it when I turned off my return pump for feeding an maintenence. It would take a few moments to dial back in and the increased water volume in the sump due to some backfill from the tank until my syphon break stopped it, could cause the collection cup to overflow. All in all 3/5 stars. Decent skimmer for the money.

I think that this would be a bit much for a 40 gallon tank. I would go for a lesser model. it works well on my 55 gallon tank but I would not go lower than that

I think it would hang off the sides. I used it for a 29 gallon and it fits perfectly.

We use ours on 40 gallon breeders. I haven't measured it, but it fits our 36X18 tanks well. A little snug, but I like it that way.

I don't know what you have for a skimmer but the pump outlet will accept either male or female threaded 1.5" PVC Schedule 40. You will need to provide the piping from the pump to your skimmer.

I think fitting a new filtration system in the place of this one is possible because it just hangs at the back of the tank. If you don't overload the tank this filtration system is just perfect. I have 3 tetras and two dwarf frogs and this filtration hasn't failed me .. great tank overall !

You'd have to look at the measurements of the tank. I got this for my 30 gal tank.

You have a 46 gallon aquarium, be careful not to buy a lid that says 36 on it, that means it's a 36 gallon and the top wont fit yours.

I have a 40 gallon and this size works well, it should e adequate for that size also

It's not recommended for a 75 but I think it would work but I would not recommend it. I used this on a 38 gal fowlr and it worked. I don't use it anymore because the seal is not tight. I had to use clear silicone for a tight seal and it work perfect, but when it's time to clean it I had to remove the silicone to open it and apply more silicone to seal again. If you don't want to use this just make sure you have a lot of water movement at the top of your tankn via a couple of large hang on back filters, wave makers or powerheads.
