Interesting, I wonder how/why that rumor, if it is a rumor, got started, because it is very wide-spread.

For an 8" tube, 32" high, you would want the sedra 9000. Or two

The ASM G5 is 8.5" tube 36" tall and uses 2 sedra 9000.

Sounds like a killer skimmer. I'd do a Eheim 1260 it's what came on my Deltec, kick as* over the Sedra 9000. A bit spendy and not sure where you'd get it, they seem to only sell to Deltec owners and If you needed I could order one if you can't find it online.

When do we get to see the Skimmer!

So Steve are you modding an existing skimmer or building one from scratch? Or is that a secret too?

My buddy was looking up sources to buy a needle wheel eheim. The cheapest place he found was $130 for the impellar alone + cost of pump
