Wow, if I put that on my 20L I could skim the whole tank at once! Look heavy! And looks very cool.

I've got some pics, but my USB cord seems to have gone bad? Anyway I will upload them when I get a new one. The break in was about 12 hours.... and after that it took off.

One thing I have discovered is we will be doing the cup mod to empty direct into the sewer cause WHOA this stuff stinks bad.....

I wonder why Euroreef has not implemented a cup modification yet? They could sell waste traps like the Bullet skimmer has.

Well, these are the first external skimmers, and this one is LARGE. An external waste cup would still leave a stinky solution and it would be even LARGER ..

I think they firmly believe in keeping the cup clean to enhance skimmer performance. The simplicity of their design, expecially compared to thunb screw becketts, make this easy to do.

This waste collection cup may be the answer to your smell problem:
