Ha, ha, nice work. You guys are killing me. Go big or stay at home! You could be on Tim Taylor's home improvement show if it was still on. My little two and a half footer with 8 watt air pump and AquaClear 301 powerhead is not worthy...

Nice dark nog, wait a couple weeks for that baby to really get going, I get that much in about 4 hours on the 750, waste collector gets emptied daily and the smell is horrible.

we found the type of wood (lime-tree) in a lumber place and is really cheaper making them yourself...
We can make 12 air stone with a 4$ plank!!!!

2 months since the skimmer is in action!

We really think it's working great!
our hait algae problems seems to end, the algae is dying and disolving!

The polyps extension is amazing!

I think this old technology is quit "soft" on the water... compare to using a needle wheel or other pomp that are hard on water...
