Check the DIY section on RC for some guy that made his own for MUCH less. I may give it a go one of these days the idea seems pretty sweet. My stand is already plumbed to my basement floor drain. One of these and a drain in my skimmer cup would be hella cool.

Those Reefmania skimmers loot pretty sweet, Brad. I just wished they used a pump other than the buzzy Sedras (which are <ahem> the same buzzy Sedras on my Warner Marine BTW). And they need some more red acrylic like Tom's new lab beaker.
