Very nice Doug very nice! I see EVERYTHING is coming before the skinning of the stand =) The weight is mostly due to those pumps...they're like thick bricks. Bricks that make hella nice bubbles!

I'd read that the BKs and other high end skimmers arent over rated and you should take the manufactures rating for what it is....cost was a factor too....not a ton of spare cash to throw at things like this....and then there's the g/f factor.....

More like the equipment is catching up with the Bio-load Lance.....the last couple weeks before the BK got here, my ER was filling the collection cup almost daily.....the fact that a ER rated for 135g was keeping up to a slightly() stocked 150ish g system amazes me......gonna miss that skimmer....
