BK400ext finally arrived.

Jar*Head · 10/26/2006, 06:32 PM

My first impression when i see the box "man, why did Scott use such a huge box for a small protein skimmer"

When i open the box, i was speechless. I saw this huge collection cup being wrap very well with bubble wrap and next to is the skimmer body. Fortunately nothing is broking or scratch. I will post some pic this weekend when i have it up and running.

Mchava · 10/26/2006, 06:43 PM

Steve let me know when you have it up and running I want to see this thing working. Man your thank should look sweet as this sting starts working.

john37 · 10/26/2006, 07:31 PM

very nice man....please post pics when you get a chance. I dont think you'll ever need another skimmer again.

818 · 10/26/2006, 07:38 PM

Steve, if you dont mind me asking...What do you do for a living?

Man that skimmer is going to pull out poop the size of bull *hit.

IsaaX · 10/26/2006, 08:52 PM

congrats steve, when can I come by and check it out? hehe

raskal311 · 10/26/2006, 09:02 PM

You couldn't wait an extra 60 min for me to get to the shop so I can see it before you take off with it ha? If your free tomorrow I have the day off and would like to come over to take a look for myself. LMK I have to be at the shop at 3pm as always so it would have to be before that.

Jar*Head · 10/26/2006, 11:41 PM

No worry man, i will bring by the shop to show you. I will put it in loc truck. It barely fit into my Civic. I have been working on the plumbing and the stand for it all day today. I know plumbing but working with wood is a big NO NO

I have been saving for that protein skimmer for a long time. I am in the military for 10 yrs. I will feed the skimmer 300-500gph from my overflow box.
