bro, wow so "early" still not asleep?

You know lots of work to be done. I had to redo the PVC from the skimmer return. Connect up the MX-70 etc. Add more saltwater, make sure no leak from the skimmer etc.

Luckily I see that my sump still can support the higher volume of water from this skimmer :P But a new sump will be coming soon as the crazy flow rate from the MX-70 is causing a lot of micro bubbles in the main tank now.

Anyway when you receive yours I see how fast you can fire it up. Wow kinda of like the who wants to be a millionaire game show lol.

Bro Weileong,

I'm curious to know if there is any difference in performance (skimmate), if you pipe all your mx-70 output to one beckett versus splitting into 2 beckett.

You can do this experiment easily right? Since you have individual valve to control the flow for both.

but the point of connection will kink or not, as i draw below....

Roidan, pls see the photo that I attached, I used metal chain to support the whole structure so it will not kink :P See the blue arrow in the photo.

Wow sia!! Can serve latte directly from you skimmer next time.

Black black kopi-O already skimmed but I was a afraid of overflow if I set the water level too high so I just redirect the drain pipe back to the sump. Have lowered the water level for dryer skimmate :P I know your beckett also arrived, faster hook it up and serve pple kopi-O :P

Patrick and Deepblue, I've tried to just run one beckett off the MX70 and it seems that spitting it and running two beckett gives a higher bubble density. I say this because the "water level" is higher but that was when I just installed it and the skimmer has not kicked in yet.

After that I went to try it again and seems like running off one beckett really gives lower bubble production. Since I already have two beckett I will just run both :sick: The hissing noise from the air ###### is quite loud :P
