David, while I know what skimmer and pump that is, the other readers may not. Give up all the details on the mods you did also.

Dave you got to get better pics than that! Try to get a close up of the foam in the neck + body of the skimmer. I've been wanting to see this thing in action for a while.

rich it hasnt even broken in yet LOL. i think it needs two days of action without me cleaning the neck and everything to get the performance i want. i just know the air intake and the flow rate because of my dwyer meters

Dave, what's happening on the return side of the pump, inside the skimmer?

Is there a tube directing the flow?
