![]() I am all about DIY (gets me going when I actually build to see the end results)
That said through few back and forth with Mike helping me on different dimensions for few types of skimmers and the end results is a large skimmer with I believe 16" diameter outer clear casing with 10" reaction chamber 36" tall with couple ball valves release and a 10000 bubble blaster ![]() ![]() |
