really you cant. I am suprised really that it works as well as it does. simple and effective.
 
Off topic but I unsubscribed to the old thread and subscribed to this one. When I get a notification that there has been a new post, the link sends me to the end of the old thread. How do I get it to send me to the most recent post in the new thread? Thanks.

Need some dimensional info on the IN250.How high is it from the bottom of the skimmer to the bottom of the T on the discharge? I'm trying to figure a way to discharge skimmed water directly back in the main tank. Jeremy gave me lph on the gen2 250 which Iconverted to scfh, 36.72. Pretty impressive for a pinwheel.

That is really odd . I have a skimmer that has that same type of air intake . I couldn't stand the noise . It creates an echo and resonates .I would dial in to raise the water level . It would make the air intake louder .
BTW I sold my first Gen Vertex . I went through 1 full pump replacement and 3 impellers since late Nov . I still am glad everyone is happy with theirs . I had the IN-100 .
I sure am happy with what I have now .

I'm curious what the conversion is? Thanks.
 
I have heard good things about these skimmers what are your opinions about these skimmers I need a new skimmer for my smaller tank 20 gallons and just want a cheap skimmer for that tank.
