Well after much debate and thought I came up with this ideal of where to place my skimmer, and it seems to be working great here are some pictures.27665

I might need to get a more powerful pump right now the supply pump is on the inlet side with about 6' of hose I have a Mag 12 pump but this skimmer recommends either a Mag 12 or Mag 18 pumps, I'll just have to see how it works out.

How is the wife or girlfriend liking that solution? Oh and big smile seeing Charlotte Pipe on there.

Thanks I'm excited that I finally came up with a solution to the problem, it makes it easy to work with and clean it.

No...but my son seems to think he is in charge and has a say. Pfft. I had to threaten him with ME cleaning his room if he didn't help with the tank today. I love that one...works every time.
