Top class!

Amanda

Number, Vitaly, NUMBER? But it looks very presentable!

Emily

Not bad. Vitaly, can a similar "silencer" be made for the air intake in the "Atman" foam maker? Will it affect the operation of the foam maker? And will the effect be sufficient?

Larry

It depends on which atman.

Michael826

It seems to be a model like this: Atman SK-388, AF-2300. However, in my case, the tube goes up from the pump, and inside this tube, there is a second one going down into the chamber itself.

Sara4035

It should fit, but the valve on the atman needs to be cut off.

Caroline1599

So, does that mean the air will go directly into the pump? At maximum? How will the adjustment be made in that case?

Stuart

Why muffle the air, especially since the native pump is already struggling to pull in air.

Adrienne

Thank you. What if I want to redo it? I read your thread about upgrading the same type of pump as mine on "Akalalogo." What if the pump is much more powerful? Or will there still be a need for adjustment?

Mario

The modernization of the 388 has become outdated "like the world," there are already other solutions to make it work, but that's a different topic.

Leslie

So far, it’s enough for me. It produces a good, dark, almost black foam. It operates relatively quietly. The noise from the air intake is a bit concerning, but only at night before going to sleep. I wanted to solve this problem.

Steven7574

The pen arrived. The quality of workmanship is beyond praise (the guys at work couldn't believe it was homemade). Vitaly, THANK YOU!!! I will now try it out in work.

Rebecca1419

In progress:

Emily

The car is just right... but is the lid on the foam collector designed so that it doesn't pop off?

Sharon

It is not fixed, but there are about eight holes around. It hasn't been raised yet. We'll see. This is a note for Vitaly that the lid should preferably be made fixed, as with a large amount of foam separation, the foam lifts the lid and goes everywhere. The lid on the muffler should also be made fixed (on Vitaly's previous muffler, it is fixed, but on this one, it is not).

Brent7831

I think the lid won't come off. During our last phone conversation, I forgot to ask if the lid is still in place.

Jeffery7866

The lid doesn't lift, it's heavy enough, but I had to glue the diffuser or whatever it's called.

Angela7060

In the next pen, I took all of this into account; I will post the photos later.

Stephanie9175

Continuation... The next version of the pump: - used a pump with a flow rate of 3000 l/h, 45W - the rotor is made of neodymium magnet, which allowed to increase the performance, air intake up to 900 l/h with a consumption of 25W, - a detachable cone has been added, - the reactor chamber is sequentially attached to the pump body, - the impeller is made of caprolon (light and elastic) with a thickness of 1.5 mm and a length of 10 mm, - drainage from the bowl is made with a hermetic seal. There are photos in operation above from Sergey (), the pump is the same as in this one.

Jessica6754

Vitaly, I would just attach the base with screws, and the cone with screws that have holes like... uh... well, like it is now on the base. Then, to remove the cone, it's enough to loosen the screws and slightly turn the cone. That's it - access to the internals of the foam block is open, you don't even need to pull it out of the sump. The reactor chamber attachment turned out great!!! And also, it would be good to make the outlet from the foam block in the form of a piece of pipe, say for standard 32 mm sewage. Sometimes there is a need to divert the flow to the side without turning the foam block itself.

Earl

How much will such a device cost????????? When can it be ordered??

Melissa2062

Hi, regarding the cone, the client requested that the foam insert fit into the narrow space of the sump and the cabinet, which is why I made it this way. This is not related to ease of maintenance; to clean the foam insert, it needs to be completely removed and disassembled. As for the outlet from the foam insert, we can come up with something in the next version, although that will increase the dimensions. In private, if you're interested.

Beth3383

Hi! I was thinking that the coolest thing (for me) would be this: the cone is non-removable, but the body of the foam filter is in two parts, so you can loosen the screws, turn it, and remove the top part. The bottom part is firmly glued to the base. The division of the parts is just above the pump's inlet/outlet. Then you can easily remove almost the entire foam filter for cleaning, and it will provide very convenient access to the pump. If I hadn't been in a hurry back then, I would have ordered it that way. Well, nothing, the process of improvement is endless.

John3142

Usually, if I clean the skimmer, I take it all apart, clean the body, and disassemble the pumps, rinse the impeller, etc. Just cleaning the body is not a complete maintenance of the skimmer. I can break the skimmer body into five parts, but it will look intimidating, scaring children at night.

Danny

That's true. But it's a full service. Sometimes there is a need to just wash the casing.

Richard2180

It is necessary to wash the pump, rotor, bubble, and cup much more often than the body.

Michelle1505

Hello! May I know the price? Best regards.

Darrell7542

And if possible, please let me know the price! Thanks.

Curtis9143

the price in private message please. Thanks.

Jeffrey496

I am interested in a skimmer for a 300-400 liter aquarium, planning for a marine setup 125-130 * 50 * 60 (height) + sump. What can you offer and how much does it cost? I live in Grodno, Belarus... Thank you.

Tammy

I want to thank you for the excellent skimmer! It's a bit challenging to get used to the power after the mini.

Rick

Send the price of the penny in a private message.

Matthew

Could you tell me how much a small barrel of about 300 liters would cost with the sample in your version? Thank you.

Tiffany5069

Hello, please send me the prices for the penny in private messages (for systems of 250-300 liters).

Wesley

I am also interested in the price for a 300 - 400 liter barrel. I would greatly appreciate the information.

Sara

Why is everyone messaging privately??? What are the secrets? If something is worth it, there’s no need to be ashamed, just state the price, and then the "market" will adjust... Price in the studio... please...

Ryan2281

Today I received the package. The pen arrived in perfect condition. It's already working. Thank you!

Stacy6866

And I get the price for a penny.

Diana7891

Guys, good afternoon, what is the price for the pen? I'm very interested, for example, I'm preparing a 650-liter aquarium + a sump for 200 liters. Thank you!!!

Noah1632

Vitaly, in this skimmer, you rejected the increase of the pump's working chamber. Why? Is the performance gain not significant enough with its increase?

Nicole

This type of pump has a large chamber - 50mm, depth 20mm, and the impeller is 32mm, which is quite normal in percentage terms. A small impeller means less vibration. I'm tired of cutting pumps.

Justin

I couldn't find the prices... If possible, at least in a private message. Thanks.

Paul

Send the price of the penny in a private message.

James4757

And I don't care about the price, the planned display is 300-400 l.

Jonathan6173

Vitalik, can you send me the price for the pen pump (low-voltage pump) in a private message?

Gene1948

Hello everyone! The next version of the foam generator was made for a low aquarium stand, with a total height of 400mm. The pump is 12V, with a power of 16W. Air consumption is 480l/h. The main pipe is 120mm, and the base is 130x180mm.

Thomas5021

Vitalik. Thank you. I received the pen from the previous post. Now I will try it out in work.

Kevin8087

Vitalik, you can send the prices for the last two inventions in a private message.

Emily3144

I am planning a marine aquarium. I have a 110-liter aquarium and will be building a sump of 50-60 liters. I am interested in your devices. If possible, please provide the price and description with the dimensions of the device that would be most suitable for me.

David3217

Hello everyone! Once again, I have become the happy owner of a foam maker for a low-pressure pump, made by Vitaly. Thank you very much, Vitaly, for the excellent foam maker. Special thanks for the needle wheel for the smaller foam maker. I recommend it! P.S. The device is simply a beast.

James3382

Can you somehow make a pen for yourself?

Julia

Yes. But you need to read a lot, do many experiments, have some tools, a head, and a couple of hands - and the pen is ready.

Crystal4879

The invention of the bicycle. It's easier to buy a ready-made one (made for you).

Robert800

Aquarium 400L, sump 150L. Is there a budget option? If possible, please provide the price for a couple of options.

Stephanie4990

Vitaly, the prices can be set, a system of 350-400 liters is planned. Thank you.

Elizabeth1221

Good afternoon. I need a foam generator for 600 liters. What can you offer and how much does it cost? Best regards.

Erica

Is the topic still active? I need a skimmer for 400 liters. If possible, please provide the timeline and price!

Kimberly

Hello, how much does such beauty cost?

Mary

Could you do something with this guy selling dominoes? We hit 500. Best regards.

Emily3144

Please send this question to me in a private message.

Jason9952

Vitaly, thank you for the pen! I installed it today, and there are no issues with the adjustment. I recommend it! Order it, you won't regret it! Best regards.

Mark7376

Hello! I am interested in the latest model of the foam roller that is 400mm tall. Please let me know the price. Thank you!

Hello! The skimmer has arrived. Everything is great. Thank you very much!

Joseph8592

Improvements are "on the face"! I see that the air supply hose has become even thicker =) It's a pity that my ozonator has very thin fittings, so I have to make a bypass for the skimmer to receive enough air. Has the rubber seal on the injector been modified too? What has changed? Kudos for the bolts connecting the tube and the bottom! Are you not fixing the pump firmly? Is it rolling around the tube? Is there a special place for the pump's electronics on the left? Can you provide more photos? I mean quantity, not size. NOX! Keep it up!

Rita

Thank you for the very high-quality pen! Vitalik, you have golden hands! I will reach out again.

David953

Hello, Vitaly! What is the current price for a 100L sea pen (space for the pen 220*390*240h)? What characteristics will it have if the aquarium is very (!!!) populated? Thank you in advance for your response.

Joseph8592

Hello Vitaly, what can you offer for a mixed riff in 700 liters? Thank you.

Brenda

I became the happy owner of a pen from Vitaly. I picked it up and realized that it is the creation of our forum member. The quality of the craftsmanship is indistinguishable from factory-made. Thank you once again for the great device.

Kathryn514

Vitalik, thank you for your gadget. 4 tons in the foam is insane!!!

Caleb6320

What is the price of such a skimmer?

Courtney4094

Thank you, Vitalik, for another PRODUCT!! Everything is really cool.

John3142

I present another product. Frustum PS-150 foam fractionator for systems up to 500 liters. Base size 170x170mm, height 500mm. Pump JEBAO DC2000, air consumption 480l/h, at maximum pump power of 20W. Body - 3mm clear PVC sheet, cup - 150mm pipe.

Vanessa

Vitaly, thank you for the pen, it's already working. I am satisfied. Thank you very much.

Rick

Continuation of the Frustum skimmer series. Frustum PS-170 on a JEBAO DC4000 pump, air consumption 1300 l/h at a pump power of 30 W, base 200x200, height 550 mm. The skimmer is, of course, for systems slightly larger than 500 liters.

Rachel

Hello! We are talking about different pumps, I can't compare JEBAO pumps and DC50A, in my opinion, they are different pumps, their electronic brains work differently. The ratio of air consumption to pump power is quite accurate for pumps with a Hall sensor. As for the housing, great manufacturers have long concluded that a conical housing is much more effective than a cylindrical one in foam formation.

Johnny

Hello. Vitaly, I have the same pen. The question is, I want to buy a Jebao DC3000 pump for the reserve. Does it need to be modified for the design or not? Or do I need to buy everything from you?

Daniel8015

Good afternoon. Can I get the price for this pen? Thank you!

Kathy

Good afternoon. I am also interested in the price of this pump. (possibly the JEBAO DC3000?). Thank you.

Joshua8425

The JEBAO DC3000 is not much different in price from the JEBAO DC4000. I have this skimmer working with the JEBAO DC4000 at 5 units of power, while it has 10 units. However, when the pump starts to weaken, which it definitely will, you will be able to increase the power.

Helen

Thank you, Vitaly, for the skimmer and calcium reactor. Excellent quality, price, and delivery times. Packaging The devices themselves If there are still those willing to overpay for brands, try to persuade the manufacturer to make the skimmer a bit narrower than stated. Vitaly can do that too.

Wendy8540

Good afternoon. I have an aquarium, Hagen Fluval SEA Reef M-60, 91 liters, with a sump in the aquarium - a compartment with dimensions: width 100 mm, length 150 mm, water column height 360 mm. Please help me choose a protein skimmer. Thank you.

Rita

What skimmer can you recommend for my 105-liter aquarium with a sump of 45 liters, but in the future, I will be upgrading the display to 250 liters - so I need a skimmer for 100 to 300 liters?

Helen

Good evening, Vitaly, please accept the order for the production of a foam generator: Foam generator Frustum PS-150 for systems up to 500 liters. Base size 170x170mm, height 500mm.

Sarah5423

Hello, I have a pen from the first post. It has been sitting without water for a long time, and the rubber at the entrance of the pen has dried out. Please let me know what material it is and where to get it, or what can be used as a substitute.

Daniel8015

Hello! You can cut it out of a bike or motorcycle inner tube.

Larry

Okay, I just thought the camera might be releasing something into the water, but if that's the case, I'll cut it out of the camera, thanks.

Nicholas5194

Good morning. I urgently need a skimmer for the rear sump for 120 liters. One of the conditions is a quiet pump. Please help if possible.
