It occurred to me that this bit of info might be helpful for me to include- I'm wanting an in sump, under stand skimmer. I won't have a place for a 4' skimmer anywhere, at least not yet :D Thanks

Originally posted by RobChuck Look at a variety of premade skimmers and see where they're rated at in relation to the diameter and height of the reaction tube to get an idea of what size you'll need. Thanks. I had planned on browing a couple LFS and checking it out that way. My main concern...

I've been doing a bunch of research on diy skimmers for a couple planned tanks. The one thing I've not been able to find is this, when looking at plans, how can you discern whether they're big enough for your planned tank? I would assume it's a mixture of flow and chamber volume, but is there...

If you split it up, I might be interested in tank, stand, and sump. I'm only about 5 hrs away and have a truck. JLSprouse@hotmail.com LMK

I don't know if the salt adds any meaningful additional weight (wouldn't think so) but I'd always thought freshwater weighed 8.33 lbs/gl. J

That was actually my first thought. I've been cruising ---- and other boards classifieds. I've realized, people that buy good skimmers don't sell them, it's only tyhe bad ones I see up for sale:D I'm honestly really starting to lean towards a berlin Classic. At least there's some good things...

I know there are alot of these posts, as I've spent a good amount of the night pouring over them, however, I'm still gonna make my own. I'm setting up a 55G FOWLR to get myself acclimated to marine tank upkeep. I'll be setting up a much larger (240 or bigger) tank in the very near future, so...

I might be interested, but I can't see your e-mail addy? Mine's JLSprouse@hotmail.com . Where are you located? Any parts missing? Let me know, Jason

I'd love the link- JLSprouse@hotmail.com

Wow. Who'd of thought so little could be answered in 11 replies? Anyone else care to weigh in with a response, as long as they're not from Alabama or Conneticut? J

First off, I know that a 55 is nowhere near big enough to house a clown for life. I do have an extra 55G right now, and with plans of a fuuture 240G+tank, thought I'd try a marine set-up now to get accustomed to their husbandry needs. I've really wanted a clown trigger, and while it may or may...

The more I look into it, the more I think I'll go w/ a Picasso trigger for my set-up. I know there's still possible probs w/ any trigger, but there seems to be a lot higher success rate with them. They seem to have a "bold" demeanor too, which was probably the most intriguing aspect of the clown...

Originally posted by cubuffs I had one with a tusk, lion, panther grouper, S&S puffer, and a zebra moray. Wow, add a purple tang and a b&w Heniochus to those, and you've got the exact tank that'd I'd love to have. Yeah, I've read the same thing about their mortality at small size. My lfs...

I'm in the planning stages of my next tank. Won't happen until at least OCt. or Nov., but I like to research:D It will be in the 240G-340G range. I know that Clown Triggers are the [hr] of the trigger world, but Ilike to hear from anyone that has had success keepin them w/ other fish. I plan...
