You helped me find my mistake - I was searching the last 6 months only! I guess that is the default. Embarrassed One quick change and voila!

After reading those posts, a few people have tried searching for DIY skimmers and not found it. Strange. This is proving to be very interesting though. Thumbs%20Up

Has anyone tried making an in sump protein skimmer? Something that would handle a well stocked 125 gallon tank? If not, have you heard of any success with DIY protein skimmers at all and their effectiveness in comparison to name brand ones?
