+1, you can even vent the top with a charcoal filter.

well it looks like your skimmer has a drain hole connected to a 1 gallon container. why not just put a larger bucket in there instead of modding it into a collection cup.

Because the tank is in my room and it will look uglier LOL I got a quote for a cabinet to hide the skimmer and it's half of the price of a new one.

And since i'm going away I won't have to worry about it going crazy
