I was thinking along the lines of a cousin of R2D2, a few years ago a scrap dealer had what was advertised as a cottage size nuclear reactor, it was a movie prop but at 6 feet tall and 4 foot diameter, did I mention it was clear acrylic, I thought that IT would make a cool aquarium... or skimmer.

Ok dude, question time .. I promise no more Doctor Who jokes. (Ok I lied. Just one. Instead of rolling around shreiking "EX-TER-MI-NATE!!!" this one is saying "EX-TRA-SKIM-MATE!!!!") Oh I am such a nerd...
1. What's the main body construction? I swear it looks almost like a hot water heater coated in fibreglass. Except I know it can't be because they're like only 40 gallons... 2. I don't see where the venturi's are? Oh and I guess you have to inject the air with an air pump (I remember you were looking for a rather large air pump a week or two ago, I remember this because it piqued my interest then as to what you were up to... ). But you still have a venturi right? Truly a work of art....
