I have an Austin Oceans Foaminator MAX 4000 Protein Skimmer (http://austinoceans.com/products-skimmers.html#Bookmark-SupersizeSkimmer). This skimmer was originally designed by Zephrant of Barr Aquatic Systems on ReefCentral and is now being sold by Austin Oceans. I would like to get $650.00 for the skimmer. As you can see from the pictures it's in great condition and has only been used for about 3 months.

Dimensions of the skimmer are 36"x13"x10" and some of the features


Twist-lock flange instead of the thumbscrews for the collection cup.
Integral air filter and silencer.
Redesigned injector holder.
Ozone port on injector is standard (comes with a plug if not used).
CO2 port on base is standard (For the Calcium reactor effluent, comes with a plug if not used).
Redesigned bubble path for more contact time.
Skimmer in a skimmer mixing box for great mixing and lower bubble escape
Bubble diffuser plate for better dispersion
Expandable you can add a second Becket if you need more skimming.
Air Flow Meter.

I have more pictures of the skimmer here (http://picasaweb.google.com/jonathanwsmith/AustinOceansFoaminatorMAX4000ProteinSkimmerFullSiz e?authkey=BCXHaHyK0h0#).

I am located in Austin and could deliver this to the San Antonio area or a similar distance else where.

Thanks
Jon
