    Put skimmer back in sump after i cleaned it and started it back up, it started to froth up right away and go back to work. there is no adjusting or anything. Just have to make sure water lvl in sump stays the same all the time.

    I dont have it running yet but i imagine its gonna be nice. The mini 200 i use at work is a monster on the 215 it on so i dont expect nething less from the 160.

    Dasco, can you tell me what brand pump the Vertex skimmers use? I know what wattage and volume of water they pump but can't find anything that tells me what brand pump it is. Its for a database I have of skimmers and I would be greatful if you can tell me?

    LOL, you aren't the first person to tell me that. The skimmer database has about 220 skimmers in it, the Ca Reactor database has 75 reactors in it. It was started for the Review program on the other site and I have been steadily adding to it.

    Have that cat send me the rubiks cube. I will fix it and send it back to you without taking it apart. About the only thing I remember from HS is how to fix the cube.
