See http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=11&TopicID=448&PagePosition=2">http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=11&TopicID=448&PagePosition=2 for some recent prices... or call yourself.

BTW, the sheet from Delvies is imported from Taiwan.

   Thank you for the replies. jfinch I seen your skimmer it looks cool might have to get the details from you if you let me. I was looking in to making me one to looks good. If your running that on a 2100 thats alot of foam!

  What kind of tools did you construct it with? What would be the most critical part of the whole project? Is that a beckkett injection? What am I looking in materials to build it? I have access to some 1/4 or 3/8 acrylic but nothing that is big enough to make a sump with but probably a skimmer box though! I found a site on reef.org online coarse 35.00 I think it was maco something like that Im to lazy to go back and find it anyway I was to late to sign up for it anyways it looked interesting though. But back to the skimmer I am fasinated about building a skimmer now and I cant get it off my mind if your getting that much foam off a 2100 then that is pretty effecient they dont draw that much elec. compared to most down draft injection models I have read about.  That ought to be a good start for me anyways

maximus89, since this doesn't really have anything to do with this thread, I replied to your questions in the "Mini Skimmer" thread...
