maybe a chaeto fuge
just don't use the airline

the macro would probably spin around in there a lot

^^ good idea, although i just put the output line of my phosban into my fuge area so it tumbles alot in there

also thinking of it the body of the skimmer is maybe 3-4" circle.....

i also have a ps75 and it actually skims really well
dark brown to almost black skimmate
I am trying out a little ATS that is right under the out put of the skimmer

you can also use it to store rubble rock or just for mechanical filtration with floss

Disregard, i read the post wrong and thought you wanted to mod it into a useful skimmer. Can't help you on modding it into something different, sorry.
