hye justin it looks nice

anyway the pros and cons of the hsa 1000

#1 beckett injector that creates a lot of turbulance and stands 3 1/2 tall to take out plenty of crap. good for up to a 1000 gallion tank.
#2 easy to adjust.
#3 more suitable for heavely stcked tanks

#4 comes with seperate waste chamber

#5 easy to take apart once you download the way from the website

cons

needs adjustments all the time based on water evaporation and additions of water respectively



everyone has a different opinion on how to use it even the manufacturer that i spoke to who contradicts the instruction manuel given. LOL

needs a powerful pump that is at least 1000 gallions per hour and can be costly with the electric.

NYCmat do you have a closer shot of the foam. I would like to see the concentration of the bubbles, not just a dirty skimmer neck
