I love this mod, i have it on my TLF 550 and it's working great with a MJ1200. I have to remove the little inlet pipe to be able to slide the unit out, but rarely have to get in there so no biggy.
I used to have mesh across the top part, and it would get cloged in mulm frequntly and reduce flow. I've taken it off, and get a couple beads escaping on a startup now, but don't have to start it as often, so it's worth it.
As for output...
I put my output into my refugium. I have a THICK pod population living off the bacteria, and my algae eats up the N+P. The algae also re-oxygenates the water. I couldn't see any reason why this would be a bad idea. Any reason why running through the skimmer would be better?
