Bit of DIY on new skimmer set up

Post by longboardpete »

Been a busy boy of late finishing the new skimmer set up.
I tried recently to sell my multibay, unsuccessfully, and change to a nexus 200. as this didnt happen i decided to change the skimmer line.
Was very carefull cutting in new tank connecters in blockwork, 1 for return and 1 for overflow but managed without stressing fish and blockwork, didn'nt even lower the water level :D :D
The eazy pod is gravity fed from the skimmer then returned via pump and UV. Very pleased with results and very glad managed to balance system so as to keep it gravity fed.
