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 ------------- Quote:"A man has got to know his limitations" |

maximus89, since this doesn't really have anything to do with this thread, I replied to your questions in the "Mini Skimmer" thread... ------------- Jon https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6y_EzjI_ljbIwf2n5uNzTw" rel="nofollow - What I've been doing... |
