Look at the size of this thing, it only draws 170w. Insane.

the float switch in the collection cup is a good idea.

That's Spazz from RC. He sells those for around 3 large. He helped me along while I built my dart mesh wheel. Nice guy.

That was good stuff. Hadn't seen the replaceable carbon in the lid before.

This may sound totally green on my part but:

• Why the float switch and not a drain line?
• What's the deal with the carbon in the lid?

Yes I never thought of that either. Great Idea.

Float switch shuts the skimmer down. Prevents to much water loss if the skimmer acts up. If Steve Weast had this option, his tank wouldn't have crashed. Waste containers work great, but sometimes they do leak.
Carbon prevents the skimmate smell and also safety if o-zone is used

check out the janary tank of the month on reefcentral. He is using one on his massive reef.

I shouldn't say I am a addicted to reefing. I am addicted to skimmers. My bubble king does and awesome job and I still am never satisfied. It like cars, bikes and guitars- married to a hot woman so no need to upgrade there. Is there a AA for skimmer addicts? SA?

Contact him. I'm sure he would be glad to build you one. Or you can just check out these:http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=reefflo
I'd consider this a reasonable price to pay for the addicted.
