wind in the brain that happens to alot of us in lethbrige. You know what they say lethbridge blows but it really sucks to live here.
Well no we dont have a sw store, i get all my stuff from calgary and edm, jl aquatics and the hat. It really sucks to not have a local store to get stuff, and sucks even more to be one of 3 who have a reef tank in this city of 60 0000 no much trading going on. well i don need info on the eductors anymore got it and am going to build a eductor skimmer in may will post pics after. And willl post pics under the pic form tonight of my tank for all to see.

Default eductors

I thought eductors weree used to improve the velocity of water at the output, and I had not heard of them being used in a skimmer. Could you please post some of the info you found?
ie models and tech info?
Thanks

the term educator encompasses a lot of designs and purposes.

generally "mixing educators" are open educators that you see people using in there tanks as returns and how you are thinking.

Beckett's, Kent turbo venturies ect.. are also educators but they are used to introduce air to the water instead of just increasing water flow.
