Macmasterdotcom has them, but they are not cheap, around 68 dollars for 3' of 6" diameter.
Mind sharing your plans so we can help each other?

he he.. well the plan are in my head.. i do lots of research and came up with my own simple but seemingly good skimmer.. 2 most important thing about skimmer it bobble size (many smaller bubble has more surface area then few bigger bubbles) and contact time.....( longer u can keep bubble in the reaction tube= more skimmate to attach to the bubble)... so i was going to make a recirculating needle wheel skimmer.... something like the turbofloter i have just simpler and a lot bigger... he he he... dont know when ill make it but i will eventually....
