The farthest ive gotten was removing the white rod and the black wheel. I cannot get any farther in taking it apart. I cannot find any manuals online so...

So I have had an Oceanrunner needle wheel pump sitting around for years for a skimmer I was building. I though it was a 2700 pump so I recently purchased a turboflotor t1000 skimmer to mate up to it for the new sump in my nano. The skimmer came, looks great.. I started plumbing the sump and...

Well my crappy little skimmer was not gonna cut it on the new 125G...so, after being inspired by Scooby's "mixed nuts" skimmer, I decided to do some research and try my hand at a DIY skimmer...So here is the build! I based my design on a "Geoff" skimmer...here is a link to the basic design as...

I got a guy who can get me clear pvc, probably free in any size and length I need, but he needs my specs, I will offer to make him one also, if he wants. He tried to make one once he told me with a airstone design and wasn't happy with it. I am going to mod this design...
