Looking forward to additional photos and perhaps some details on air pump, water pump etc.

The skimmer was a custom order from Precision Marine, I bought it used with the 750gal tank, I am using a PS4 for the feed pump and a Hiblow air pump powers 4 1x6" airstones I make similar in design to what you do, I have never seen another skimmer produce such thick foam, usually have to empty the collector about 2 hours after feeding, pretty efficient and the water is crystal clear.
