H&S Skimmer

[stros]

I just wanted to let everyone know how nice these skimmers are. I talked to Brian at Fins reef about skimmers and he was very helpful. So I decided to take the plunge and ordered a a200-2xf2001 external model. Brian thanks for the quick service and great support. I hooked it up weds. night and ran it full open for one day. Then tuned the air and water level and it is skimming great. The foam head is pulling all kind of junk out. I would not hesitate to recommend H&S to anyone looking for a quality built skimmer that work great!

do you have any photos you can include? how do you have your air valve tuned, nearly open or nearly closed?

I have the air input about half way closed on both pumps. I raised the water level so it just pushes the foam over the top ( dry type skimming)

I would hate to smell that collection cup on the way to the sink. :)
It looks like it is skimming great.

Thanks for the kind words.

It is skimming great and only took a couple of days to start producing the nasty stuff.
