Well, I guess I made up my mind, this thing is huge. I have never plumbed such a beast, I'm hoping all will be well. Letting the PVC glue for another 12 hours then I will give it the final rinse before it goes into action. Any comments would be great!

Looks identical to mine except my inlet pipe is not connected to the outlet on the top as you have it and my hose to my inlet pump is differant (mine should actually be longer so the pump can sit on the bottom of the sump) Looks awesome though and yea it is a big hunk of plastic but it works great. Just set up a new computer last night so i have to load some software before i can upload some pics but will do so by the weekend.
Cheers Rich

Hey Rich,
I had to construct everything myself. I'm feeding mine right off my overflow. So far I have to lower my output pipe. The water is filling up 1/2 inch above the chamber. Where is your water level set for optimal skimming? I may end up going simple and running an MJ1200 to it LOL... Looking forward to seeing yours in action! Steve

i don't think a mj1200 will do it - i use a mag 250 (came attached) and it works great - a 1200 probibly won't have the volume (smaller outlet on the mj comapred to 1/2 outlet on the mag) of water you need to run it but you can try. My water level goes to the bottom of the skimmer cup edge with only foam above the bottom cup edge. Got the pics - just trying to find the darn cable to upload them.
Cheers Rich
