The Puffer Forum

I am really curious about making a skimmer, and I was almost positive that Chin had made one and had pictures somewhere. Chin if you do, can I see them? and anyone else that may have some, just put them up so I can see.

I'm thinking a small skimmer, not a giant one...

thanks guys, Jase

im also interested, i have my GSP in a 30 and need a skimmer for it and if i could make it thatd be awesome

DIY stuff seems to always be cheap and efficient (if done correctly!).

that's why Chin should get her butt on here and help us!

Hellllllllllooooooooooooooooooo, where are you chin ???????????????????????/

Yes, they are very easy to make.
**I have made temp ones out of tupperware before...**
I will make up a step by step and put it on here shortly.

Thank you I am trying to do my own right now, so that would be great!

so, Chin Chan? where is this article?

I think she died lol. JK chin.

Relax boys and girls. Chin has been a tad bit under the weather and I need to gather up all of my pictures of the tank and etc.

Feel better Chin!!

I really want to bump this one. I am sooo waiting for it.
BTW, at what SG should you start using a skimmer?

i have talked with nick and he said his stared working around 1.018.

i tried to make a nano skimmer out of acrylic but it didnt produce any skimmate and then the silicone wasnt sealed right so it leaked, i couldnt find any of the proper weld on to seal acrylic.

a good plan for a skimmer would help.

Oh, I'm kind of excited for this one myself. :]

well?
