It is a Mini-G, but not the kind that is skimmer over pump that they are selling now. It is styled after the G-1 and larger skimmers.

I may just have to live with it as is until the pump craps out and it needs to be replaced.*

*(Which actually could be because I try to open the bugger to do the mod anyway!)

Yes, the people on this board seem to be pretty straightforward for the most part.

Got my mesh the other day, thanks. There were even a couple of tie wraps included!!!

NOW, if the person I "bought" my skimmer from would just SEND it to me we would be all set. For some reason I have had just terrible results in trying to purchase items from people in this hobby. Crappy results actually.

I could.  It is easiest to use priority mail, just take a chunk tothe post office and throw it in their envelope for whatever that flatrate is now.  To Salt Lake it may be cheaper just to do firstclass and buy an envelope.
