Good to know.  Thanks.
 
This is the thread I was referring to.  He is from Calgary.  Not sure if he still has it for sale though.
 
deltec mc-500 skimmer 
 
You just have to cut a small piece of the plastic on the top of the left side of the skimmer chamber so it sit level.  There is a video showing the mod on YouTube.
 
I've only had my RSM250 set up for 6 months and I haven't burnt out any of the rear cooling fans.  I leave them on 24/7 too.

I am using the stock Hydor skimmer pump. 
  
I will look into the thread that you mentioned was posted a few months ago. I did see on recently but I believe the gentleman lived in Vancouver. In which case maybe I should buy a new one from JL or something... 
  
Did you have to make any mods to your tank lid for your Deltec?  
Do you burn through as many rear cooling fans as I do?
