You could try mesh mod. Maybe a review before and after modding.

thats what the impeller looks like already. i havnt have any skimate since the second day. i think the water is too clean right now. i have no fish in there and just a few mushrooms and a frogspawn.

I have to take the skimmer back out tonight. i found some mirco bubbles leaking out of the case half of the pump. i think i might need to seal it with some silicone. i'll get more pics when i take it apart.

wahaha! u alot of suprises bro! (: cant wait to see ur new toys and new tank!

yeah, i only paid $30 USD for the picotope. and it came with that Azoo skimmer. so i couldnt pass up the deal. I might try to fit some LEDs into the light fixture so i can have some SPS.

try use plastic mesh instead of fibre mesh

u can use fishing lines to tied if u cant find anything else..

btw u might wanna watch ur heat for ur pico tank..

and e evaporation rate.. for such a small tank is a killer.. :pirate:

yeah thats why i want to do LEDs, because there will be less heat.

ok i figured the whole thing out. its actually really easy to use once you get the hang of it. i got the PH probe calibrated and working. only thing i'm upset about is i cut the hole in my stand a little crooked for the head unit. no big deal i guess.

so its been controling everything in the system for about 12 hours now. the heater works perfect. my actinics turned on when they were supposed to and my MH just turned on.

i did a water change this morning and i turned off both pumps and the skimmer with the touch of a button. how cool is that?

:( my bad... didn't read the fine-print... haha.

Would you consider helping some of us ship this to SG?

(im thinking if this is a worthwhile investment)

would the lite version be good for a 2.5'x2'x2' (approx 200L) tank?

the website consists mainly of technical information... i would strongly recommend a marketing person revamp their web language (i would volunteer myself!).
