I am always impressed with the ingenuity and design that goes behind making bubbles in water. Any particular reason you are not using the BM anymore Karl?

What a great skimmer and a sweet deal too. I might have to put a system together just so I can use it.

Thanks, Mike! I'm trying out an ATB skimmer. I imagine it's only a slight upgrade, but too early to tell how much.
