Whoa! You have been holding out on us. Looks like you are quite the DIY'er. Very nice. Love to come see your setup sometime.
-
nice rig man
-
Very nice!
-
You call that lazy?? Nice setup!
-
interested in seeing pics of your sock holder. looks very nice
-
It's a home made sock holder, I cut 4" diameter holes in a sheet of plexiglass and mounted a reinforced piece at 90 degrees to the holes. Glued a couple tee's to the reinforced piece and there you have it.......
The best pic I have of the sock holder...I borrowed my daughter's camera to take these pics. I'd take a better pic if I could...

Nice, looks like alot of "do it yourself" projects How big is the sump? Is it a 125 gal tank?
-
That looks really nice Mike, I see you also build yourself the collector for your skimmer. Did you find plans for that or did you "wing It"?
60 buck skimmer?! Good Score!!!!

I made the collector by the seat of my pants, I made a shut off with a ping pong ball and a piece of tubing the ping pong ball fit into. Funny thing is it actually works. The collector filled up and the ball shut the skimmer down. Made it for about $25....
