yeah, how can you NOT guarantee ALL the parts on a skimmer.

"yes we will give you a warranty on all the parts except for that one, it's too fragile you might break it"

Dorks!

That's a good point about the ghetto mod.

Also the BM200 uses 3mm acrylic while the 250 uses 5 mm.

In order for a skimmer of that (good) design to come with a full guarantee it would have to be better built (stronger) That would make it more expensive and not as many people would buy it. The whole point of ATI bringing out this skimmer is to provide an affordable skimmer with a design of a much more expensive one. The company also states that by not making it super beautiful they can release it at the price that they did. Besides, even a Bubble King, as nice as it looks, will be covered in shit. So just treat it like you would your own nuts. If you break it still, well......thats just tough luck isnt it.

they do come with a sticker to warn you of the backwards gate valve.
of course the stickers are on back order, so in the meantime I might have to mod one

299- I saw the video and I have never seen so many tiny bubbles. This is the first one being sold and I would have bought it if I didn't just get my BK. Check it out.

Where's the video?

It looks like a CPR BakPak w/MaxiJets
