due to a slight case of insomnia and mere determination the skimmer is in the sump. not easily mind you. i will say that the fact that the skimmer comes apart into so many pieces was slighlty helpful but i do forsee doing most my maintenance to the skimmer in sump rather than taking it out and apart... maybe once a year task a full cleaning..if i drink enough first



here is a video of the start up. the pump isnt too quiet .. i rate it a touch quieter than my 1n-180 with a rusted blistered impeller. i was hoping it would be a bit more silent than it is. it is what it is

now i know i should have done a vineger bath before runing this thing, and im sorry mike i wa sgoing t just didnt have time to go pickup a rubbermaid container but i was so thrilled to actually get it in the sump after 20 min of manipulation that i decided tod eal with it. cause shortly afteri stoppedthe vid it decded to puke fom and i couldnt get it to stop until i restrictd thinletto the pump.. will see what happensinthenxtcouplef day
