Has anyone attempted other modifications to this unit> (YA YA YA I know toss it and get a better one. Saving up ,y Canadian money for a better one) I am not much of a DIYer so will not take that router..

But my question is has anyone done anything other than shortening the tube? Like put on a different pump? putting in an airdiffuser inside the reaction chamber?

I shortened the inter tube and now the bubbles sometimes are a tad big.. It definately skims better than it did before. Just curious if anyone has attempted other modifcations to try and make this work even better. :)


Thanks

Yep. I drilled a hole in the top of the collection cup, both the outer and the inner wall. Then I drilled/trimmed a hole in the lid where that lined up, so I could feed an airline tube through it and down into the bubble chamber. Plugged that hose into the airpump, and it pulled up better foam.

But the skimmer still sucks.
