For Rick, Skimzilla

[lfsmarineguy]

I didn't want to hijack your thread. Since I like Rick, and I know he has a disease...

I won't even tell you what it costs but I will say it's not currently plumbed into anything... for the next few days maybe.

2x 8" inlets and a 12" outlet. Just don't go blind Rick.

50 different things just popped into my head. None of them are apporperate for here. Lol

But wow. Wowwwwww. I see a K2 written on the side, can't read the rest. I wanna look it up! Not fair...

 

[lfsmarineguy]

RK2 is the company

 

[ryangrieder]

Can I predict the skin mate? Maybe something like this...?

 

[TRIGGERMAN]

A 40 breeder...

I would have guessed a 6 gallon edge

I think it's a tad over kill for a 6g don't ya think? A 6g would be good for a bubble king or something...

That foam looks to be a bit on the disgusting side!

I've seen a few back room setups at some aquariums, and I've seen this skimmer at work, but I can't remember where I saw it. However I believe Aquatic eco system sells them. That thing can make a mean skim shake.

around 50k and got to handle a 20 to 30 thousand gallon, was a guy on RC who had a rk2 skimmer that was 7 foot tall he was selling lol I was like a little kid when we went backstage at Atlantis Aquarium checking out their skimmers

This one is hooked to a 1,000gpm feed pump. The tank is much larger than 30,000. I should have more pics soon.

 

[NYreefNoob]

nice, lol sad i get excited over skimmers

 

[lfsmarineguy]

You could be getting excited over far worse things.

 

[NYreefNoob]

true, is that goin in a business or someone let the ocean in their house ?

 

[lfsmarineguy]

Public Aquarium type of place. I've seen some insane home installs but I doubt anyone has space for 200,000 gallons (or even the foundation to support it).
