Skimmer

[Nemain]

Well I have the new skimmer up and running... Looks great! I am a little short on room, so I have to get someting built for auto top off... any suggestions?

The skimmer looks awesome.. not sure on how it is working yet... I will wait until morning to give it a rating!

Thanks ro dez and harvey for the u-tube idea, its working amazingly!

I would love to post pictures, but the boyfriend says the craftmanship was done quickly not nicely, so I am not permitted :P He is already talking about building me a fish room! I think I may have an addict on my hands *cheer*

Talk to Harvey about the Auto-Top-Off.
He has been making a number of them lately...

I am looking at making a shelf in my stand that will hold a two or three gallon container and just use air tubing or something like it for the water to get in to my sump.

Well i had auto top off, its the container size I am worried about.. not even room for a shelf... prolly ony 12 inch diameter... not a pretty thing to be sure =(

Run it straight off the r/0 unit from the basement to a float valve.

No room required, and hook it to a solenoid just in case.

My 180 wasn't basement plumbed at all but my top off came from the basement with a 1/4" hole in the floor of my closet.

PS, are you back yet?

Hooked up my auto top off last night and it works great. Directly from my ro unit to a float valve in my sump. Still need a solenoid though. I drilled through the kitchen cabinet and through the apartment wall . Lol, I then ran it along the wall to the tank.

Hey Des do you know where I can get a solenoid?
