Is the red knob on the front a plug for adding attachments like say a surface skimmer?

The red button is to regulate the output of the pump who puts the water back in the tank

Ahhh I see. I'm wondering if there are any HOB filters out there that you attach a surface skimmer to?

Are Penn Plax Cascade hob filters available there in the UK? I have a couple of these that are getting close to 5 years old now. Cheap and reliable.

i had one like this, and it works perfect, never had any problems with it, but i changed my filter system with cannister filter to expand the filtervolume.
but yeah it works great, it makes almost no noise and simple to work with

I am new to shrimp but have been keeping fish for 13 years and the aqua clear is the best I have used and I have used a few. But a little mesh on the intake and it's shrimp safe.
