I have a brand new, never used Beckett 3 skimmer for sale built by Ocean Aquatics. It comes with a brand new Mak 4 pump and a waste collector as well. I've decided to go with an in-sump model due to lack of space in my stand. The dimensions are 30" by 12" by 12". Won't sell seperately.

$500... saves you at least $100 plus taxes equals about $200.

Somebody better jump on this... terrific deal... I've seen the stuff myself and it IS absolutely brand new, never seen action in a setup as far as I could tell... if I'd have known this was coming up I probably would have jumped on it myself, but alas, I ended up spending considerably more for my Bullet 2... with no collection cup... BTW... I think yer nuts Jason... :question: :question: :question:

I know, it's a disease. I always go big or go home.

I'm sorry Shane, but your post cracked me up. :lol: It totally sounded like me: all proud that you have some new technical wonder that will make your tank fantastic, but then you're sort of stuck looking at it, wondering how to make it go :razz:

Good luck
Christy :)

Feel free to stop by if you're in my area Shane... mine's a Bullet 2... but setup would essentially be the same...

haha thanks guys, i can get 'er runnin no trouble, but figure those who have experience with em might have suggestions to improve certain aspects. ie my PM cal reactor was much easier to work with after i put a couple john guest quick release shutoff valves on each line. makes pulling the unit much easier to pull out for cleaning / refilling.
