With either an Eheim1048 and/or an IwakiMD20RZT it takes out big bubbles (inch long slugs of air in the tubing) and the microscopic froth produced by the Iwaki (I use 10% antifreeze). I did add a small plastic baffle in the upper outlet to slow the swirling there and help the smaller bubbles rise. All in all it was a successful experiment.
