SKIMMER FIRED AWAY….!

I must say I’m very please with the skimmer as once the water fed is adjusted, no other adjustment is required and it’s basically plug & play.

So far the micro bubbles from the skimmer return does not seem to come into the main display but hard to tell until the water clears up within the next few days...

However, I will have to adjust my drainpipe again tomorrow as since I add a fed to my skimmer, my return water is not balance. Also notice some micro bubbles coming from the return pipe….the micro bubble is not from the return sump section so have to check all my pipes again to see if there is any leak or join not air tight…!!!

Almost forget…added these to give the add flavor…. :lol2:

One of your hotel guests is wondering why their room service request for Shrimp Cocktail is taking so long to arrive :p

awesome! Very nicely done. You have some great pieces of rock as well, great score.

I really like that center island. Very natural look.

Thanks thirschmann - that's the piece of overhang that broke on me when I was drilling em'. But now it's fine as I've epoxy it down... :D

Will try to get a video camera to post my wave next... :p
 
Very well done Ed! Looks like a big part of the city will be able to see your room that is having some intense bluish light! Love the view :) Good choice on the color of your stand
