Replacement airfilter for skimmer or powerhead

Here's a simple DIY to replace a lost air filter on a skimmer or powerhead venturi airline. Just pop a fw type airstone on the airline and make sure it stays dry. I use one on my Skilter-piece-of-@#^* and, IMO, it works better than the original valve. Can't adjust the airflow unless you go from a fine-grade airstone to a coarser one, but, with my unit at least, the regular airstone seems to allow the perfect amount of air to the skimmer.
