Bubble King Skimmer

Ruth · #1 10-12-2005, 03:53 AM

I have uploaded 3 pictures of my new Bubble King Skimmer in my gallery. As I am computor challenged I don't know how to attach them to my post.
Anyway, one picture is with my son's size 12 boot and the other is with a large container of ARM media for some perspective on size.
Still waiting for some plumbing parts for my new tank but hopefully this week and then begin to add water - order live rock - and fire this baby up. Unfortunately UPS really tossed this thing around in shipping so the collection cup lid arrived broken so am waiting for a replacement but should be able to duct tape if need be to use until new one gets here.
Can't report on performance obviously but from all accounts they are supposed to be pretty good. It will be interesting to see how it does during curing of rock. Should pull out a LOT of gunk.

Wow that thing is huge.

Wow, that is definately massive!

I bet you your itching to get it fired up!

Mind telling us where you bought it from as they are suppose to be hard to find? I think Aquarium Obsessed in ONT. is a dealer but I don't know of any others in Canada.

I am anxious to see how this thing performs so really hoping that plumbing is done this week.
I did purchase from aquarium obsessed in Ont. and that is the only dealer that I know of in Canada as well.

Is that the 400 EXT? Nice!

It is the BK 400 EXT. And I don't know who let the dirty boots in the house. My fish, dog, cat, and horses I can seem to train - but not my son.
