If wars were fought with this stuff there would BE no war.

Sir, I believe you would benefit from some nutrient export. Or a Brazillian.

Are you going to be getting a skimmate overflow container? Maybe even straight down a drain?

HAHA. That was gold!

No I'll never use the drain. I much prefer it to overflow back into the sump than to have an extra (large) container fill then maybe also overflow. I fear the massive topoff that could occur.

I clean the cup every 2 days so the cup's more than big enough.

The overflow containers with the float inside are pretty fool proof.
(PS. If you don't like the Brazillian, I suggest a Beckham).

You and David must be pretty close nowadays. How cute!

I'll have to see how much this thing produces with a bioload. But I actually prefer cleaning it every 2 days or so. I found my last skimmer did better like this...not sure about this one.
