jesse-
have you or any other users of the NS skimmers added a drain to the collection cup? is this available from Elos?

thanks!

A few have talked about it but to my knowledge nobody has done it. With the right drill bit I don't imagine it would be that difficult to do. I actually have a collection cup that got a small scratch on it, that I was going to give it a shot but just haven't got around to it. The jumbo collection cup is also an option if you need more capacity.

thanks for the reply, jesse.

what size is the std vs the jumbo?

The jumbo is 3.5 inches taller. Take a look at the "NS1000 Experience" thread on page 2 or 3 and you will get outside dimensions of all the skimmers. The NS500 and NS1000 share the same outside dimensions but the ID of the reaction chamber is different.
