Just waiting for some extra plumbing parts to fire it up and then I will post some comments on performance.

I think they forgot to send you the Flux Capacitor. :p

Really... and in the theme: where do you put the dilithium crystals?

SWEEEEET is that the 500 external!!!!!

We need a pic with something to give us scale. why not jump inside

J

Ruth what in the Heck do you do for a living here Im making well over 65,000 a year and can't afford a bubble King..

Now thats a SKIMMER. You really dont believe in over skimminig do you.

Hmmm - I had to google search to see what the heck dilithium crystals were - and I think they must have been included at the price I paid for that beast.
I will try and get a picture with something in it for scale but suffice it to say it is big although I don't really think I would fit inside - and no I do not believe you can overskim a tank if you are doing regular water changes as well to replenish any trace elements that might be used up or skimmed out. IMO there is far more to be gained by skimming a tank aggressively than might be lost due to heavy skimming.

:shocked!:



:crazyeye:


Wholley mackeral. Now thats a skimmer. I think. :lol: Looks like a beast Ruth. Cant wait for action shots.

Hey Ruth
By the way we forgot the dilithium crystals,It will be shipped to you asap:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
If you like to guess about how this skimmer perfoms ,just look @ how thick are the air intake hoses!!!!!!!!!
Yes Jason that is a BK500 ,there is only one model bigger which is the BK650 ,That is the one thomas phol uses on his wholesale facility
BK 500 is rated for 580 gal to 1320 gal ,which in my opinion is very much underrated ,the cast is 22" diameter!!!!!!!!!!!!!:twised: :twised:

R2D2:mrgreen:

Geez, running that externaly, I'd double the capacity of my sump. :lol:

Ruth, is this your second bubbleking?

how do they work?

Holy Crap thats huge
........ I must say I didn't know to expect when I read the topic:silly:

....but can it cook?

No way would I eat any of the stuff it is offering up - gross stuff and lots of it.:biggrin:

Super efficient pump sucking in massive air plus a diffuser plate.

Dont Spill The Cup!

Take a look at the size of the cup - I can barely lift it if it is full.

Any new comments on the skimmer?

Gonna get a separate collection container?
