Ive talked with the owner and they are re-designing the outflow of water to be less complicated. The fabrication was too involved so that will probably be the first change.

there it is... the rogue sounds interesting need more info on how it works? are the bioballs for bio filtration or is this a means to create bubbles? i guess they should be able to be taken out if you want. maybe they are the bubble trap for this skimmer also? interesting design direction.

of course $25 price increase
