ROFL

We're getting ready to quit using filter socks and hoping to order one of these soon. My wife is hoping it's the pink version. Personally, I think the blue versions are more fun and probably not quite as expensive to operate.

I got 3 of them skimmers, used. the oldest is now 16 years. I wish I could get a refund, but even though maintenance has gone up, they still work like the originals in your pictures. still babbling, crapping, and fussin'

Yes, I agree that the blue ones are more fun. Besides, with the blue version it's the only one you have to worry about. But, if you get a pink one you still have to worry about those pesky blue ones!!!
