Default My new Deltech based DIY skimmer

I've been wanting to try out a Deltec based skimmer for a while now, so while i was building my new sump i thought "what better time". A buddy gave me his old DIY venturi skimmer after i sold him my DIY beckett, so that's what i used. I just didn't want to go spend any money on anther project that i might not finish/or work. For those interested i took quit a few pics as i built it so could post some build up pics and messurements if anybody wants. Just remember this was a bunch of used stuff and only spent a day wipping together.

Here's what it looked like when i got it


Here's what i ended up with.


It is gravity feed from my overflow, uses 2 maxijet 1200's with bioball pinwheel impellers and works like a charm so far.
