nice skimmer, also nice rock layout, i see some spots where you can make some bigger caves for your fish to hide in, but all that looks sweet, where did you get the skimmer?

I got the skimmer from a friend in low places!! From what I've heard maybe the first couple that have been released. I am truly amazed at the amount of air that this pulls, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Once this puppy is broken in I think it's going to be a heck of a skimmer.

Thanks for the kind words about the rock work. Had a little help and like everyone elses tank it's a work in progress!

You need the the coke can next to the skimmer so people can get an idea how big it is. Very nice tank also.

Now don't get me wrong, I upgraded from a modded ASM G3 to the Cat 1 Hurricone, but this skimmer takes the cake. Half a cup of the nastiest, thickest nog I have ever seen in basically two days running (I don't count the first day due to break in).

I will post nog shots in the coming days and I cleaned the cup tonight and tried to dial it in a little better.

Seriously two BIG BIG thumbs up to Octopus and CoralVue on these beasts!
