I have for sale my 5 FT Matt Monster Dual Beckett Skimmer.
I have been using this skimmer for the last 3 years on about 500 gallons of total water volume. If you have seen the skimmer that Fin Addicts uses, this is basically the same type of build.

Skimmer is rock solid and can be used internal or external.

Pic of skimmer all cleaned up, just replaced the 0-rings on the becketts.
Selling for $400.

This skimmer needs a heavy duty pump, so I will sell my panworld 250 PS that I have been using to run this beast for $125. I will only sell for this price if you by the skimmer.

Here's a pic of the pump:

If your looking for a skimmer to run a large system, (retail or home), this is a fantastic one at a great price. Just ask anyone that has used a Matt made skimmer.

New Price ---- $450 for both the skimmer and the pump.

Does it come with instructions? I'm not too bright about this things. I think Jeremy at B &B has one similar I'll check with him. But, would it work for a 265 or would it be too much for it. My 265 is going to sit beside my 210 would their be a way to make it work for both of them. Not sure I really want to do that, but I'm trying to justify getting it so I need some help with my rationalization. How noisy is the motor my bedroom is just a few feet away from where this beast will be?

Thanks

The motor has a definite hum to it, it's not really that quite.

It would work for both of them, but you would probably want a shared sump.
I would also say it's not too much for just the one tank, but it would skim both tanks very nicely.

OK,

There's almost that much in materials cost alone. This is a great deal!
