Don't always let looks fool you. She is exactly like me...scary.

As for the skimmer, that is the larger of the two we received. It is only 8' tall and uses a 1/2 hp pump just to drive the venturi. The discharge outlet is 3" pipe. I can't wait to get both running. This one is for a brand new system and the smaller one is to replace an ETSS skimmer.

We calculated the water volume at about 140 gallons (give or take a couple). Oh ya..it has an electronic interval timed spray down system to clean it.

Tom,

This is for a new system that will be about 3500-4000 gallons and heavily stocked.

Just so I'm clear, the monster is the skimmer not your daughter right?

Here is the younger brother.



I was playing when I took the pictures of the skimmers. Sorry about the salt on the glass.
