    Thats a pretty good idea with the air inlet. I think I might try that. You don't have any problems with it sucking in any foam?

    Nope, the foam never reaches that area in my skimmer. it just hits the ring, and proceedes down into the cup.

    Oh ok... I didn't really look at my skimmer when I asked, but I think I know what you mean.

    small set back. I just returned my BM160. There was a small leek at the bottom of the water discharge tube. Sent NuOcean an email at 9:00 last night and got a reply with in minutes. Sent Chris at NuOcean some photos and he called me this morning telling me to send it back. With in hours I received an email with a UPS return label. I hope to have the replacement on Thursday or Friday. I will keep you posted and hope to be up and running over the weekend.
