Blast From The Past

This is probably the oldest aquarium related thing I have. And it's the 4th edition from 1976

By far the absolute best skimmers ever made. IMO of course ;)
MTC Venturi or Beckett skimmers.

I love my MTC MVX. I did a lot of playing around and testing different configurations and pumps. Different venturies and even dual. Jeff also sent me a new collection cup top and Beckett conversion to try.

Unfortunately Jeff is no longer with us :(
 
Here is my 72“ Giesmann Spectra. I know it’s old and ancient and lo tech and can’t be programmed and it’s from e the horse and buggy days but every 6-9 months I have to trim 1-2 Home Depot buckets full of SPS colonies or the tank just gets overrun. I just trimmed about 1 -1/2 Home Depot buckets out today.


For those of you who might be concerned I might run out of Radium bulbs, I have a 200 gal IO box full of now or almost new 20K radium’s. I don’t know how many that is but I’m sure it will last me well into whenever LED finally catch up with MH
