I have a CS8-3 skimmer. I have the gate valve mod for it now. How high up should I put the horizontal piece? Even with the union, below, or above? I am thinking below because the gate valve will make the water higher. If the horizontal piece was higher then I would not have much adjustment. Am I correct?

where did you guys get your stuff for modding with the gate valve and what size for a CS8-2? I am guessing I need to raise my riser more to get more skimmate but ut won't go any higher
 
I ordered mine a few years ago for my CS6-1 but didn't have the room. I bought this CS8-3 really cheap and the drain size is the same. You could always make yours I bought mine for $40. I cannot remember wear. You could probably google it.

EuroReef Tech,

You guys mailed out some items for me on Monday I was wondering if it was sent DHL, UPS, FedEX. PM me if you need my info to look it up.

I got a new gray impeller, about 2 weeks ago for my rc-250, just put a dwyer airflow guage on it and it's bouncing between 10-15. Should it be steady? Why is it bouncing around?
 
The bouncing is normal, but I think you should be getting a little more air than that.

Hopefully ER Tec can give some insight :D

EuroReef tech, I am not way too happy right now. I called a week and a half ago and left a message with tech support at Euro Reef about the Uniseal that connects the tube from the Sedra 5000 to my skimmer body. I specifically stated in my voicemail that the original Uniseal was siliconed in place because the original hole was drilled too big for the Uniseal. The hole is 1 7/8" in diamter. Obviously it should have been drilled smaller to accomodate the 3/4" Uniseal. I was told I needed a Uniseal part #50302. The one I just received via UPS is the exact same size as the original that came out of the skimmer WHICH WAS TOO SMALL FOR THE ORIGINAL HOLE. I was also told it's not a Uniseal but some other fancy name you guys give it. It says UNISEAL right on the damn thing. Any help you can offer or am I stuck siliconing this one in place as well?
 
EuroReef Tech,
I was told to call ER yesterday by clay and talk to Chip. I left a message with him and was told he would call me back. I have yet to hear from him. All I wanted to know was how high should my horizontal section be for a gate valve mod on a CS8-3. Even with the union, below, or above? If there is more info I need then please just call. I was Tony from the 219 area code on the voice mail.
