Richard,

Nice skimmer. How big is your tank?

Is that a Big Al's price tag I see there?

That skimmer is freakin huge.

That Skimmer is the big als skimmer, its the dual turbo floater 5000 with dual ocean runner pumps.
im actually in the process of setting up my tank aswell, its a 9'x2'x18" starfire tank. 200 gals, Garry is actually coming to silicone it back up for me tonight... it was to big to fit down the stairs so i thought i would cut it apart, long story short, front panel breaks, Garry gets new lino in his kitchen....

I've heard some say that some people get exotic skimmers to make up for other shortcommings.
