Great skimmer.

Nice! That was a really cool video. It looks like you've got it dialed in really well.

Congrats on getting a great skimmer. I'm sure you'll be happy with it.

 

[NEWSALT]

Thanks. Lord knows I had enough problems with the DIY one I built. Looking forward to this one doing a good job for me.

Great choice! It's almost as if you have two skimmers they way the water is churning up in that first chamber!

 

[NEWSALT]

Yeah, I know. I don't know if that's good or bad ???.

 

[Brian]

Surface agitation is a great thing! As long as it's not causing microbubbles in your main and you don't mind the salt creep, I don't see a problem with it.

 

[NEWSALT]

No microbubbles at all in the main tank. The water passes through 4 baffles before it gets to my return section.

Ok, it's time to get rid of my Coralife needle wheel skimmer. Very nice!

Mike, did you order that directly from MRC? If so, was there any issue with ordering from them? I'm just wondering if they recovered as a company after that horrible incident.

I believe they were bought out in a matter of days and promised business as usual.

Jeez, what an idiot. I love my MRC skimmer though!

Impressive skimmer! Looks like a nog machine.

I did order from MRC. No problem ordering from them at all. As Rich said, they were bought out and the new owners have taken over.

That's good to know. They make some really good products.
