what kind of skimmer is this

[jesserettele]

Anybody remember this skimmer or know what brand it is? I got it for free and I love to tinker.

[Mr Cob]

interesting... looks old school.

the built in skimmer doesn't have a pump and to tell you the truth, I can't tell where one would hook up to it. It is a very strange design and probably not even worth messing with but I thought I would give it a chance before getting rid of it. THanks for looking.

[Mr Cob]

it's definitely similar to this:

I can't tell if yours is the PS3 or PS4??? So make sure you find that out before you purchase anything for it.

LOL! No problem... while you were goofin off with being miss betty crocker in the oven with egg crate I was over here hard at work! = )

That's sweet that you have the top-off...shoot everything new is like $300! Pretty cool.

If you do decide to use it all just make sure you plan to frequently change the filter media...wet drys can cause problems on a SW system if they are not maintained above average. I would also get everything put together correctly and run it in some distilled vinegar. It will clean up quickly in a couple of hours.
