Default Water movement takes step forward

www.reeftec.com Check out this innovative new product by Mike Kirda. There is a review in Advanced Aquarist by Richard Harker (haven't checked yet but Mike says there is). Looks like a winner, anyone wanna buy a slightly used Ampmaster? :D

That looks pretty interesting. Not expensive either. Seems to generate lots of bubbles though.

I think the bubbles were introduced to show the water movement.

Looks like it's got lots of movement, if the bubbles are not a result of the pump it looks like a good invesment. But it also doesn't look that hard to make.

I am leaving for holidays... but when I get back I plan to work on this one. Darren I'll be in touch. Too many ideas are flowing! (Pun intended)

Great item, I’m interested in it.

FYI and a little off topic

Just to let you budding inventors out there. I work as a buyer and I have a lot of contacts in manufacturing through North America. If you ever need any help or names just E Mail me and I will be glad to help. Some of the prices that I see for simple skimmers etc is truly out rages. Before I get flamed I understand that stores need to make money to pay their bills but some markups are outrageous.

Darren and others if you do make one I am interested in buying 1.

Cheers,
Patrick

Hello Patrick,

Am I missing something here? [img]smile.gif[/img] If you have any examples, please e-mail me. I think you are probably talking about the small or junk skimmers sold by stores where people don't go there to buy aquarium stuff but other stuff.

Very interesting...... but dont you think once you buy the unit then buy the pump and then the wave maker timer the price is a little heavy. Sure does look good though. Amasing what a RC airplane prop can do
