Default Got my Skimmer

well I decided that it was time to clean my skimmer, it has been running for about 2.5 weeks and man what a stench when I opened it up.. to help show my point I have a couple pics [img]smile.gif[/img]

you can see the thick sludge that has coated the sides of the tubes. (I think my wife almost passed out when I was emptying the colection bucket in the bathroom.. :D )




so after it was all cleaned I put it back to geather and flashed it up.. less that 1 min after plugging it back in this is what it looked like. (in real life you can see that it was already starting to skim again.)


and 5 min after I plugged it back in...
