Nice skimmer! I have never tried using a beckett skimmer although I do have one I should hook up and give a try - just would have to drill my sump so it is probably not going to happen anytime soon. Keep us updated on performance.

Hey Jim,

What size are the two air valves on the becketts, 1/4" or 3/8"?

Jim,

I was thinking of getting a calcium reactor from the same company, how did the shipping work, out, I would imagine it is quite expensive to ship large bulky thinks like that up here.

Send a message to Medican.... They have sent a Calcium Reactor to him twice and it arrived smashed each time. I got lucky getting my skimmer in one piece.
