Current Specs
“Super Beast” Cone Skimmer
Cone Base: 12” Cone Neck: 6” Overall Height: 43” Footprint with pump: 30” x 18” Recommended Pump: Reeflo Dart Super Gold Inlet: female 1” PVC female pipe threaded (supply pump not included) Recommended water level: NA The “Super Beast” or XL model is an external recirculating skimmer driven by a Dart Gold with a custom venturi and impeller. Currently, the pump draws ~3000 lph at 153 watts with a Dwyer meter attached. When the meter is removed the wattage drops to 143 so I believe the skimmer is actually pulling more air during normal operation. Features include; valved collection cup & body drain, controllable bypass loop for more stable foam production, cup-neck to base dissembles with stainless steel thumb screws, air suction silencer/muffler and the supply water is feed through the recirculating pump. This skimmer took nearly 12 months of design, construction, and tweaking to make me happy. STATUS: Custom Order
