Diy skimmer ?

[A Reef Scene]

Is there anyone who has built a diy skimmer in the range of 1000 to 2000 gallon system.

THanks for the help. Are there any others?

I'm sure there are many, but I honestly wouldn't know. Check out my reef creations, they have a section deticated to 'industrial' skimmers

the main than is 1500 gallons and there is a 600gallon frag tank and a 180 gallon tank upstairs along with a couple of 400gallon sumps and the skimmer holds 160 gallons. so its alot more than just the 1500 gallon main display. lol

Any updates spazz? Has production slowed down yet or it is still cleaning up the system?

last time i talked to billl he said production had gone down a little. but that he was able to feed alot more food to the fish with no ill effects to the water quallity. he is also working on the new tank and house. the 17,000 gallon tank should be in the house some time in the next month or so. it will take as long to plumb the tank and get it running as it does to build the house. ha ha ha
