Very nice, In your video slideshow you have a little bubble coral, looks to be twice the size mine was when I got it way back when, forgot how cool they are when that small. Keep up the good work.

I can't wait for you to rate the bubbleking. If anyone has used enough skimmers to compare, it's you

Thanks Marie, well listening to the skimmer its very quiet like you have stated to me earlier. once its broken in I will give my feed back on it so far its going to get great results from me.

how long does it take to break in anyways, I was going to soak it in Vineger. but i couldnt wati to get it in the tank.

I soaked mine in vinegar before using and the skimmer started skimming within minutes after being placed in the sump. It still took a couple of weeks before it hit it's stride though and has been skimming consistently ever since with no help from me other then cleaning the collection cup twice a week

This is the skimmer 2 hours after I placed it in the sump
