For the lids on these skimmers if anyone wants to make one contact me. I have plastic lids that secure overtop of the collection cup and seal the unit. Rather than messing around with more flanges.

Gotta love Visio.. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Would rather do it in CAD but to lazy to install it. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Cool Darren, but one question about this skimmer.. well maby 2 or 3 .. what would one use as a pump, what are you using for a venturi and will it work better than a modified sea clone? hehe

I Still have more work to do with posts.. Drawings, manuf methodsetc etc... give it a post per day..

and they are a lot better than the sea junk.. NO comparison.. Ask silverfish. He saw mine in action. I ran one on a 90 with no problem.. but that was a FO tank.. I'd say max 75 gallon reef tank.. MAX..

RIO 800 RVT or Maxi Jet 1200 with venturi kit.
