Bring on the FISH!
I am re doing my 210 gallon tank before things get far enough along that I will not want to. You know the story, getting rid of the plastic containers, funky plumbing, and just cheep equipment that is you get what you pay for. So I got the tank drilled, stand is all sanded and ready to primer and paint, the sump is planned and ready to build. The one thing I can not pull the trigger on is to make 5 to 6 foot counter currant skimmer or to just buy a small (good quality one this time) to fit under the tank. The way the tank will be set up there is a perfect space on the side to build a large counter currant skimmer. I could make it 10 feet tall and it wouldn’t be a problem. From what I have read about them it seems to be a more efficient skimmer if you have the room for one although I’m not to hip in the air stone and air pump part of it. Does any one make a commercial one like that or should I just save my self the trouble and buy a good needle wheel skimmer?
