Well I finally got the skimmer

Haven't seen a lot of skimmer but this is the most beautiful skimmer I have seen to date

I encountered two issues with the skimmer:

1. The small piece of pipe connecting the pump and the bubble plate is loose (seems like they didn't put in enough glue) so I will have to use some superglue to fix that thing. No big deal.

2. The skimmer chamber barely fits the skimmer (no space between the inlet and the glass so this will have to be resolved in this weekend.

Will get the superglue, fix the pipe and will put it into vinegar bath. Probably won't be able to get the tank going for another two weeks

Just a quick update:

Thanks to Tim from Seacare, I now have 20 lbs of walt smith LR sitting in a tub, waiting to go into the tank. In order to minimize death, Tim shipped them via Air Canada cargo today afternoon and got it over here in the evening. Couldn't take any picture of the individual pieces since I wanted to get them into water ASAP but the pieces are wonderful and lots of lives on the rock. Here's a snap of the rocks sitting in the tub:

On the other side, the stand for the tank has been on backorder for the last couple of weeks and J&L is finally got it in stock today. Requested them to 1 day ship it and hopefully will be getting it on Friday.

If everything goes well, this weekend should be a busy one

On the other side of the story, I got myself this :
