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.

Well, this was supposed to go in the DIY section. Don't know how it ended up here!
