    You could have a 6 foot tall and 10 inch diameter chamber for it.

    That was the only one I had heard of. A friend has one on a turboflotor and it works amazing. I think for my 75 gallon I may have to go the needle wheel route. My 75 may be too small for a beckett.

    I have a precision marine bullet 2 skimmer and it is rated for 250 gallons. Does anyone have any experince with this skimmer. DO you guys think its too too big for my 75? I still want to make my own but its there as backup.

    Handles up to a 150. It should be fine as a skimmer. If you are looking to build one let me know and we can do it on a Saturday or something like that.
