that is for the oil spill cleanup. BP has that one paid for already :)
 
Boy, I would hate to have to clean that thing. Just the body alone...and then all those pumps? Geez...

It is pretty bad#@% though!
 
I've been testing that out on my 125g for a few weeks. Its pulling ok skimmate so far. I throw my dog in there for bath's once a week to, works pretty well.

Seriously, that is SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bet there's no one that could even use that who is a member here.

lol....good one....I think this thing would pull the scales off your fish in a 125g!!
 
With all the buzz around cloud computing, I feel like this thing would be a good basis for designing a good cloud skimming design. Neighborhood reefers tap into a monster skimmer!
 
i could use it on my system !!

our club a few years back got a behind the scenes tour of the tennessee aquarium. Their skimmers were much taller than that skimmer.


But perhaps a slightly less diameter.

I know what you mean. Our club did a behind the scenes at ORA, the Brevard Zoo and then we joined the ORCA Club (Orlando Reef Caretakers Association) for a behind the scene tour of Sea World Orlando.
Got to see some very interesting equipment.
And also noted that the Zoo & Sea World both used Reef Crystals Salt.
