neither do I, but lets say the base of the skimmer holds 5 gal, and it has a main chamber out of 8" tube that is 30" tall on top of the box. so I think I need to be able to chew up a lot of bubbles.

yes it can be used inline. they suggest min diameter of 18" and max head height of 36 inch.i've been in the planning stage for about a year now (long story) to use one on a 16" square body skimmer thats 48" high with the air supplied by an alita 80 air pump. i'm just trying to find time.......
