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.

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.

yeah, them ping-pong anti-overflows are pretty neat. Is it just me or is the outflow tube for the skimmer cup always full?

Anyways get more fish in there soon. Then you can grow your balls back sooner.

And I apologize in advance for the never dying references to chaeto balls, grabbing and other innuendo that will forever follow you around.

Yeah that tube is simply open to the bottom of the cup so the first bit of nasty crap goes in there. Another issue with a skimmer container is I have no room for one. It's already going to be hell getting a BRS dual reactor in there when I can spare some coin for one (and some big buckets of media).

So yeah nitrites almost zero. When they are and when a few invoices get paid I'm gettin' me some fishies!

Nice. Your stand has nothing on crammedness compared to mine. I literally have a 2 x 2 x 8 inch space (including above other objects) for any future additions in the stand. I was thinking a small container of selcon.

Can't wait to see this beauty filled with some nice big SPS colonies and a ton of tiny fishes.

Thanks Brett.
I will be changing it back to the dive pic of my wife & turtle after Christmas.
I just thought I'd go for a more festive look this holiday season.
Perhaps you'd prefer this one.


Or maybe one a little less tasteful?


then again I could have done Homer....



Sorry I didn't mean to do this to you......
