Yep, checked the pic again, the label on top says turbofloater.

Is it the Turbofloter 5000 with twin 3500s then?

I thought my G6 was tall. :)

dual turbo floater 5000 with 2 aquamedic ocean runner 3500 pumps at 900 gal per hour each just to circulate the skimmer and u need a 1000+ gal/hr pump to feed the skimmer.

It's great your buddy got the skimmer, I would pass out if I see a skimmer like that in my living room.
How big a tank you need to run it full potenial?
One thing I don't understand, you said, "...saw this guy walking out with that giant skimmer...". Didn't you recongize your buddy or his car?

I thought the same thing, but didn't want to say it.

So now that WRXchick has opened the can of worms............ Please enlighten us prosnow. :lol:

i dont know if u can call what i have for that skimmer plans or dreams, but either way im part way there. id like to have a 600-1000 gal tank plywood with fish room behind but the way i want to do it is the reason i want to hold off. i basically want to make the fishroom and tank area almost a secondary building inside my house so that its completely closed and possably pressurized to keep the humid air in the room/expelled outdoors.
