Why did you run it in vinegar and then in a pail of saltwater instead of putting it straight into the sump?

Not trying to hijack Ray's thread but if you want to know prices we got them from reefshops dot com so you can go there and also get a shipping estimate once you add it to your shopping cart.

The skimmer has 9.5 by 9 inch base and is 21.5" tall from feet to collection cup lid. As Ron said check out he website and you can get a better idea.

Does anyone know the performance difference between any two different skimmers? I think not.
