i run a nuvo16 aswell, what return pump did you upgrade too?

I run dual maxi jet 1200s. One per return. I took the stock pump and am using it for my phosban reactor.

Well I finally got my DIY skimmer running. I didn't grab any photos of the build, I was a little worried if it was going to work. Its basically just an airstone driven skimmer.

I took a video of its foaming action. Hope it pulls out some good skimmate. Don't know how to embed it though...

I also hooked up my dosing unit and will have that running in the coming days to make sure I don't have any alk swings as the sps are already encrusting things.
