before

after

i think i like it, nothing hanging off the back and the top is all open. skimmer is already producing dark skimate.
only time will tell i put a bag of carbon in the filter. so basically a carbon reactor. no floss or sponges(nitrate factory's).

Sponges and floss only become nitrate factories when they are not cared for properly. Otherwise great for catching those larger particles that would otherwise clog up our pumps.
I have the same impeller on my Hydor and wish there was some way to hook up some floss or a sponge. Thing is forever getting clogged up and slowing down bubble production.
