I was reading that RC thread last night and I must say Marc, the build on that skimmer is AMAZING!! I didn't really think of the logistics and what was involved to build it. Your ingenuity astounds me

BTW, we're just jealous that you post over there and not here first

Holy c**p! I just went through your tank thread on RC... Man, I wish I had known about you a year ago when I was planning...I would have done a few things differently.

I simply MUST visit sometime...

Hey jason,

Yeah, i do have a couple...should be able to fire a couple pics up on sunday.

I am going to try one with a couple more layers of mesh this weekend and see if it will accept more air without burping...i hope to get a full 200 LPM of air.
At this point i think its only accepting about 2/3`s of what i think i can put into it.

I just want to time this with my 7 hr red bug treatment, so i dont have to shut the skimmmer down any longer than i have to.
