I thought i would share this with you or anybody that has a problem with surface scum i donot use a overflo box on my tanks so i was always trying to find a way to remove the skum on top of the water this is what ive been using one powerfilter (most might work)i use a second nature wdf 4000 and a floating evenflo baby bottle place the bottle over the intake tube of the filter(this is why you need one that will float)on mine i have cut off the front hafe of the threaded part of the bottle to allow the water to pore in thus depend on your water level also and this works great i have used this methode for over a year now at first the bottle was unsightly but now it coverd with coraline and blends right in.
