I have some questions for anybody with skimmer knowledge. I am going to build a new skimmer for my AP24. I am still trying to design what would be the best to build. I like the Beckett skimmers and I like the Mazzei Injector skimmers. And I like recirc skimmers. help!! if I were to build a Beckett what is the smallest pump size to run it? or if I build s Mazzei with a number 384 what is the smallest pump i can use to run it? Lastly if I build a recirc with a small like maxijet 900 that is needle wheel modded and build a better venturi for it would it be possible to get my feed water by submeging or do I have to plumb it in? Sorry for the giant post.

Anybody know if the rating for a #384 Mazzei injector means the water flow required to operate properly? I found info that states it's rated at 200gph.
