Nice J! I was just thinking it was kind of small for your size system until I seen the test box. Need some action shots when you are done tearing out all the plumbing... Hope it fits in the spot you have saved for it..

You could buy a car for what this skimmer cost. and it has a self cleaning head.

Hey J, did you get it up and running yet??? Need some action shots!! How much more water did you have to add to the system???
