Cool Darren, but one question about this skimmer.. well maby 2 or 3 .. what would one use as a pump, what are you using for a venturi and will it work better than a modified sea clone? hehe

I Still have more work to do with posts.. Drawings, manuf methodsetc etc... give it a post per day..


and they are a lot better than the sea junk.. NO comparison.. Ask silverfish. He saw mine in action. I ran one on a 90 with no problem.. but that was a FO tank.. I'd say max 75 gallon reef tank.. MAX..

RIO 800 RVT or Maxi Jet 1200 with venturi kit.

For the lids on these skimmers if anyone wants to make one contact me. I have plastic lids that secure overtop of the collection cup and seal the unit. Rather than messing around with more flanges.
