Gene1948

In this photo, I see a rather controversial method of attaching the PVC pipe to the acrylic through a cantilever connection using a PVC rod. Is it reliable? Maybe it would be better to use rubber instead. Overall, the design works, even without a cone when transitioning from a larger diameter to a smaller one, but with a sufficiently powerful foam pump, it should work well. Also, I would drill larger holes in the mesh.

Kimberly3727

Informative ... However, this has already been described and discussed, for example, here, and the description is much more complete; here it is just an advertisement for the products, and nothing more ... P.S. You can spare me the insults in private messages, as it happened on the Russian forum; I will delete messages without reading them ...

Sharon

You know better Everything I know, you taught me. I checked right away, just didn't want to rush. We'll count the chickens a bit later. I knew what place the product would take even before its creation. I'm not saying anything yet; I don't want to be unfounded. However, the ice has been broken... The links to the topics you mention are hardly usable; they have been edited too much.

Robin

You are already being unsubstantiated, do not mislead people, provide quotes if you have them. I am currently using the welding method and design that I proposed, and I am not doing what you suggested and do not intend to. I deleted my messages (I have not renounced my ideas) in this thread due to tactless remarks and inadequate actions of the moderators. There are still people who read everything... I would prefer not to have a confrontation here, but it is necessary. Still, I hope we can discuss the topic. My design options are just a drop in the ocean of all possibilities. Share yours, and we will discuss.

Emily

Here is about "welding" of plastics. At the top are the first two articles.

Kellie

Since I am using the Leister Triac S, these tools were included with the equipment, but I gladly refreshed my welding rules, especially since a big job is coming up soon.

Anthony

I have read this. The meaning they put into the word SUFFICIENT can be understood after you try to do it. I can definitely guarantee that in the construction I used, the strength of this weld is sufficient. This "weld" can be used, but you need to know the limits.

Steven757

What are the versions regarding why they inserted a PVC insert between two acrylic parts, placed two seams instead of one, and didn't just weld acrylic with PVC using an electrode? There could be several options: 1. For aesthetics 2. They simply have a lot of PVC 3. They get a good kickback for using PVC 4. Acrylic with acrylic is unreliable 5. They are just incompetent and don't know that we have people who can do this effortlessly.

Heather

2, 3, 5 - just not serious 1 - very likely. 4 - I don't know, but maybe the connection will be fragile? 6. Perhaps for reinforcing the structure? Is there a material stress at the connection point?

Patrick4439

It's unlikely to be about beauty. For example, I prefer the connection on H&S. They probably had a reason to increase the cost. Apparently, they calculated that welding without an insert is not possible. From the photo, it's not very clear whether the parts are welded edge to edge or if the upper part of a smaller diameter fits into the lower one... And why are you gluing instead of welding?????

Scott9892

It's the same eggs, just viewed from the side. You can present your product ON THIS FORUM, in this thread as one of the design options, and we can discuss it here. Or are you too weak...

Crystal4879

It’s better to glue it together and then weld it; it’s more reliable and looks better.

Nicole7268

It's enough to do just one thing, but do it well. And it turns out both beautiful and reliable.

Lindsay

Finally, the drinking has come to an end, and we can see what we have. I was given the opportunity to take some photos, and I immediately took advantage of it. As a result, it was discovered that the product is being used for its intended purpose and works without deviations. With the settings chosen by the owner, the skimmer produces 1 liter of foam. It currently has the standard AM whisk, but I think it will be replaced soon.

Jeffrey2277

I don't like these hanging hoses. They seem wrong, unprofessional.

Zoe7451

This is not for me. The author had their own reasons for doing it this way...

Phillip9722

What was the reason you deleted your message number 15 in the thread (as a moderator, without a trace)? I think you would delete it here too, but there is no such option.

Jesse

To avoid exposing you as a clone under the nickname 777a, but you just can't help it. There has indeed been a lot of off-topic discussion here, and it could have been highlighted separately in the relevant thread, but I have no intention of retracting my words, so read them at your leisure. I deleted my message not as a moderator, but as a user, since it is my message, and as a moderator, I could have removed the clone 777a, but let it be; after all, the picture is not bad.

Debra6575

The disc on the impeller is already installed. When Enka arrives, I will install it. After many attempts, I settled on this type of mounting...

Reginald5073

Arrived..., set up... Result - Air suction is 1.5-1.7 times greater than with the AM broom. How the foam volume will change will be seen a little later.

Brandy

Disk for the impeller Or 3500 - the latest version...

Disk for the pump impeller Ph2500.... (Last two photos)

Jesse3979

Hi) What material is on the disc? Is it attached with fishing line?

Michelle13

Encomat. With a fishing line. Come in, I'll show you.

Catherine6534

Am Ph2500 old and new.. Air intake ratio 50:85

Eric8832

Aquamedic has created a masterpiece, the Turboflotor Blue 3000. For some reason, instead of the stated OR3500, it has OR2500...???? It has this kind of impeller on it... I will try to measure how much it produces.

Patricia1746

Encomat or geomat. Here is the link: The same material is used by the Bubble master on the pumps.

Jacqueline5976

Enka® Nylon is a patented material with a thread thickness of 0.5 mm, and Geomat looks similar to it. To assess its suitability, it needs to be held in hand. For the production of a fluffy wheel, the PF4A grade is used, sometimes in combination with PF5.

Susan9583

Geomats - three-dimensional mats (3D) are interesting, three-tiered... they can be placed somewhere.

Daniel

What if we try to make triangular cutouts?

Barbara8192

Yes, that's how it should be. Especially for the OR3500 and similar models, unnecessary mass should be minimized as much as possible. Tomorrow (already today) such an option will be ready, I'll show you...

Gary6376

Such an option

Kevin3579

Hi Sash! Can you share the Encomat?

Susan9583

They have already installed it, and there is a good result.

William5838

Also triangular cutouts The old impeller is simply removed.

Brianna

Works better than your previous fan??

Robert1845

Yes, it's complicated manual work, almost macramé.

Chelsea

Definitely!!!

Ryan

No, the bead embroidery was done when making the needle wheel. Here, I just sewed the material with fishing line.

Jessica6754

And what if into these little holes and needles?

Laura4892

It's better to add one or two layers.

James4342

But all these gadgets are good only for aquariums of 500-600 liters. Beyond that, it's better to decide differently. I took a reliable device and conducted testing. At the last reading of 40 liters/min (2400 liters/hour), the device went off the scale... Meanwhile, the skimmer produces 6 liters of foam. With a hairy wheel and all the bells and whistles, I managed to get 2 liters of foam and 700-800 liters/hour of air intake.

Rachel

What do you think about this...

Stephen5841

Super!!!

Melissa3200

I didn't expect such a result myself. A 90mm pipe transitions to a diameter of 200mm, and it looks aesthetically pleasing. One can assume that it will be 150mm-300mm...

Wendy2244

Yes, aesthetics are important; as I understand, this is a method of hot forming.

Melissa

That's right, hot, very hot and white, completely white... If seriously, I wasn't asking what it's called. Here's what came out in pieces and in the interior... Approximately there will be 3 liters of foam, air intake 30-35 l/min. As a result of testing, we obtained 3 liters of foam, and the air had to be pressed to 1000 liters.

John3432

Another option... Tested on Atman MR7500 Air flow 2500-3000 l/h Water flow 2000-2200 l/h Foam volume 6 l

Alyssa1438

Another model... 70 cm height, pump AM 3500 The owner likes to smoke indoors, so a compartment for air filtration was made, which will be filled with charcoal and synthetic padding. To reduce turbulence, a platform with radial holes was created. Their width is 2 mm and height is 6 mm, so the bubbles will pass through a sort of tunnel that will direct them in one direction and dampen all others. The pump is connected to the body with rubber couplings, which prevents the spread of vibration. The impeller is like this. Three hours after startup... Two liters of foam.

Joshua

This is a skimmer for freshwater systems, large and heavily loaded. I haven't seen its analogs, but I know they exist. It is difficult to extract foam in freshwater, but it is possible. In addition to removing organic matter, when ozone is supplied, it can function as a sterilizer. It has been tested under laboratory conditions, and the results are good.

Helen

What is the name of the pump you used here? The yellow one, what is it called?

Jessica6754

The motor from San-San.

Mark

Thank you. Please advise: 1) How accurate are the specifications compared to those stated in the technical passport? 2) How reliable is this pump? 3) How noisy is it compared to other pumps?

Nicole2404

1 Not checked 2 The quality is not bad, time will tell 3 Not for the bedroom

Justin9867

Can a skimmer work without a pump and compressor, and with what result? The first attempt to find this out was here. This skimmer option uses only the energy of the drain (from the first floor to the basement). There is only one pump in the system for circulation. Result: 6.5 liters of foam air intake of over 2500 l/h The option of placing the filter in the basement is very convenient and is often used in private homes. Therefore, this direction is very promising.

Allison

We made this variant... Height 70 cm A couple of ideas, in my opinion, are successful and will be used in the future - 1 cup lid 2 combining the tap with the air intake silencer The design of the reactor chamber is not bad, but it seems to me too complicated; another, simpler, and better design came to mind, and we will make it soon...

David2398

Congratulations on another masterpiece; the ideas are truly successful and, most importantly, already tested and proven over time. The idea with the lid probably came from here, as I haven't encountered such a solution anywhere else. BorisKramer suggested it to me, and the option with the silencer is an even more proven choice. Therefore, it can be confidently stated that the design of the foam maker is executed extremely well.

Chris

Is there a cone in the lid? What's its effect? A muffler in the pipe? Liked it. An interesting model from Royal-Exclusiv has come out. I really liked the principle - simple and tasteful.

Rita

The idea came from the lid of AM Shoti, and I think you got it from there too. Previously, there was no way to implement it with low costs. I really don't understand why it's needed in a cup that is tightly sealed and has no ventilation holes; this baffle is needed to redirect the foam away from those holes, otherwise the foam blocks them and starts to lift the lid. In your cup, neither of these is possible. 2 Fedor A funnel creates less resistance for the foam than a cylinder. Moreover, this part is from a pipe of smaller diameter, so it's easier to work with and costs less.

Diana8604

The effect is that the foam experiences less resistance when exiting the pipe than when it encounters a rectangular baffle, which has been confirmed in practice. However, this can also be disregarded, and a lid can be used without anything else, which has been implemented in some designs, although this has not affected the price at all. In the new model from Royal-Exclusiv, the principle of drainage organization is borrowed from the Bubble Master, which has made it (the foam separator) more compact, and overall this model resembles the BM but in a more luxurious version.

Kimberly2102

I saw. I only liked half of it - the reactor chamber across the entire diameter. The fact that they then compress the foam flow is nonsense; the speed increases, and I think they were forced to do it this way, given the design, it's the only option. As I mentioned, there's another idea - to flip the lower cone. I think we'll finish tomorrow, and I'll show you...

Helen

The speed does increase, but not significantly. In return, the flow of water loses its chaotic nature and rises more evenly. Around the upper, narrow end of the cone, the water moves in a ring-like manner. It resembles the movement of smoke rings, something similar to that. There is no point in turning the cone upside down with the wide end facing up; I tried it and didn't like it, as it creates too many vortices.

Diana3118

Where did you have the disc with holes?

Jeffery7866

At the bottom, like on BubbleKing.

Sara4035

Of course, there will be vortices. I am going to place a disk at the top of the cone, its diameter will be 170mm, which will dampen the vortices and evenly distribute the air across the entire section of the skimmer (200mm).

Susan1358

The tests will show, but something tells me that a miracle won't happen and the outcome will be a crumpled, squishy bubble. I would like to see the results of the tests.

Robert800

It's just a nightmare, I want to give up and run away. Still, there is hope that I will manage to get through. I have no doubts that the product will work and quite well. I think we will finish it tomorrow; the general outlines are already taking shape... it somewhat resembles a watering can. The connection of the foam collector with the body brings particular joy. Thanks to a small cone (in two parts), we achieve tightness and ease of removal.

Jessica6754

The first half hour of work Even better than I thought

Wendy

It looks very good in the work. What about the vortices? "Better than we thought" in what?

Judy

The expected result has mostly been achieved. A pleasant surprise was that the bubbles do not reach the outlet at all, and the distance from the nearest point to the outlet is very large, providing a buffer. Even if the skimmer is placed next to the circulation pump, no bubbles will enter the aquarium. Although this is not the main point, it is nice. In Royal-Exclusiv, if you look closely at the photos, the bubbles drop to the level of the outlet, meaning they will exit. Unfortunately, I cannot measure the turbulence; I can only say by eye that it is crazy up to the disc, and after that, it can be considered nonexistent.

Angel628

It looks very decent. Simple and tasteful. There are no unnecessary frills, everything is concise. I would like to nitpick, but there’s nothing to criticize.

Joseph8842

A good foam bumper in the lid is definitely not unnecessary. Sometimes, without it, the lid can blow off.

Melissa3200

If there is extra money, we can add some extra features.

Jerry

class !!! how much is the weight for the people?

Adrienne

There is one used, in good condition, recently passed inspection - not expensive. Such foam usually appears on startup; in peacetime, the weight is lying idle - I can rent it out.

Wendy8540

Hi. At what pump will it provide 6000 l/h of air and water?

Mitchell3177

The pump should deliver 5000-6000 liters per hour at a head of 3-5 meters. It works well at three meters, but at five it takes off.

John1464

A pump with a rating of 5m and 6t will push 6t of water with 6t of air? Did I understand correctly?

Rodney7316

What do you mean by nominal??? The maximum values are indicated on the pumps. You should choose based on the Flow-Head curve; it shows whether the pump provides the necessary range or not.

Christopher8654

Are you saying that you need a pump that can lift 6 tons to a height of 5 meters? I understand the nominal rating as the maximum lift height and maximum capacity at 0 lift.

Melissa3820

For the injector, 5000 liters is sufficient at 3m. The pump should provide a bit more; you need to account for losses in the pipe and the lift of water from the pump level to the injector level (0.5-0.6m). If the pump is connected from the drain, a pump with lower power can be used (minus the pressure from the drain).

George5104

Could you please tell me which pump would provide 6 tons of air for this skimmer? Not general theoretical prerequisites for selecting a pump, but specifically, for example, a pump with characteristics similar to Iwaki MX250 is needed for 6 tons of air.

Teresa

We need 5m, 100l/min. Look where it intersects the curve. Only F250W won't work.

Tara2761

To date, the refinement of serial pumps is one of the most promising directions. We are not the first, and I don't think we will be the last. The results are indeed very impressive. Hagen pumps were used for the refinement. A new impeller and working chamber were manufactured.

Amber

Could you please tell me if this device can be used in freshwater aquariums (the hissing of air in the aquarium has been bothering me for a long time) and how noisy the unit is?

Dawn6148

In freshwater, there is usually no point in installing a skimmer.

Stacy6866

The scalar apparently meant oxygen enrichment, not the removal of organic matter. It is possible, but for a freshwater aquarium, it is expensive and the fish will likely die from oxygen saturation (gas embolism), and the plants will not grow. Unless you take a very, very small model and run it at night, the skimmer operates much quieter than the compressor.

Angela

Phyllis

What made you think that gas embolism is caused by oxygen saturation? It occurs due to a sudden drop in water pressure in the system, and as a consequence, from the foaming of gases, mainly CO2. So, is there some pressure here and its release?

Andrew4194

I have heard this many times. If I'm not mistaken, it was written in some book, and people remembered it and keep repeating it.

Stuart

Пожалуйста, предоставьте текст, который вы хотите перевести.

Bridget

When you open a bottle of mineral water, carbonated, you can clearly see what happens - gas starts to be released in a gaseous state, which was previously invisible. In embolism, gas bubbles in the blood. In flotation, there is no pressure and no release of it, so there cannot be and is no embolism.

Phillip9722

Well, it's clear, like decompression sickness in divers. But if you search on Google, you often find a description similar to this one, for example.

Christopher4108

The information about non-settled water is correct; there is a pressure drop in the water supply, with a pressure of 2.5-4 atm in the pipes, plus gas intake in the pumps. When the stream breaks or is poured into the aquarium, gas foams up. Everything else is utter nonsense. It is inappropriate for a decent professional like Pavel Morozov to rewrite such nonsense.

Nicole263

I think you have delved too much into theory.

Scott9892

We made this little gadget. Pump - Sicce 2500 The pump is made well - ceramic shaft and bushing, thrust bushing, it looks like it will be very hard to break. There is a question about the sound - the gap between the shaft and bushing could be smaller, which would reduce vibration. To eliminate vibration, the pump connects to the skimmer body through a silicone coupling. With the original impeller, the flow is weak, but with the hairy one, it's quite decent, around 600 liters per hour. We haven't tested it yet; it's drying.

What gives you such confidence that THIS penny will handle a volume of 150-450 liters? What besides your categorical "I know" supports this?

Darlene4238

These figures are not pulled out of thin air. They are obtained from years of observation and experience. One of the aquariums where this is installed. Moreover, it has the same pump, but the casing is of an outdated design, and the performance of that skimmer is inferior to the latest models. If that's not enough for you, I can provide you with a dozen more examples.

Gene1948

Well, here we go again with "years of observation and experience." In principle, the declared volumes of THIS foam can be handled, but for some reason I thought that since you claim it can handle 150-450 liters, it must be calculated somehow, like A2 + B2 = C2. P.S. It reminded me of a joke: After the first wedding night, the husband asks the wife: - You said you were a virgin? - Did I say that? - You did! - Are you sure I said that? - I'm sure you said that! - Oh, how awkward, how awkward...

Natasha

Well, if you want some numbers and formulas... Here it is - the volume of water in the display aquarium multiplied by 1 liter of air intake gives you the minimum skimmer performance (in l/h of air intake). This ratio actually works in practice in most cases.

Kenneth2761

1. The cup simply sits on the body of the foam maker - what is the gap? 2. The white tube at the entrance to the foam maker. The outer tube is sealed with a rubber ring, but what is the gap between the inner tube and the white tube? 3. How heavy is the needle wheel? How is it balanced? Does the bending of the acrylic needles outward affect the balance and strength? 4. The connection between the pump and the body of the foam maker is through a silicone insert. Does such a short insert significantly reduce vibration?

Katherine

Is the Earth round?

Joshua3019

- NONSENSE. The questions are on the topic and concern the quality of the products. I am interested in hearing the answers to them. There can't be only advantages in foam products. There are also disadvantages. Sometimes pointing out shortcomings improves the quality of subsequent products. Or maybe these questions and remarks are trivial. It's interesting!

Courtney

It's a bit rough, but it'll do. The Chinese even use a rubber ring for sealing. I meant the inner pipe. The gap is clearly visible in the photo. "I don't believe it" (c) All the photos of impellers I've seen are glued, and they're glued poorly, with the pins sticking out in different directions; this needs more work. I would like to see a photo of this machine or at least how an impeller is made on it, something like this:

Susan

On the Bubblemaster, it also has a rubber ring and seems fine.

Michelle104

A fun link. I added it to my personal collection (even though it wasn't meant for me). Seriously though, the recent posts have been filled with uninformative questions and answers. At least for me, they don't provide any new information about skimmers and their principles. And I want that. Specifically, the question: as far as I understand, you have already figured out through experience how much you can get out of each pump. Based on that, you determine the volume for the foam. Here, there are options: you can use 200 pipe, but longer, or 300 pipe, but shorter. How is this regulated? Or does it not matter?

James5032

It's fun here with you ))) And I'm very happy with the foam roller, it's really great!!! Even my mom, who is far from this, asked, "It must be expensive, is it a branded item?"

Amber6362

I don't aim to teach everyone how to design and manufacture skimmers. This is necessary for a very narrow circle of people, and in my opinion, they should figure it out themselves. I am trying to teach how to properly assess and choose a skimmer. This is something that almost everyone encounters, and it's not always easy to do.

Todd8452

Skimmer circulation D300mm, H 620mm Pump Askoll 9000 Power consumption 75W Air intake 3200 l/h Water circulation 6000 l/h For aquariums up to 3000l One of the features of the design is that the pump inlet is made tangentially to the inner chamber, which imparts a clockwise rotation to the mixture at about 50-60 rpm. After passing through the grid, the mixture changes direction and speed, moving counterclockwise at around 5 rpm. This helps reduce turbulence and ensures a longer contact time between air and water.

finish upgrading your penises, don't tease people. By the way, in your previous penis (which I have), the entrance to the pump chamber is at a right angle without any tangents, and it works without turbulence.

Shane

I feel the same way. If only they would upgrade our pens for free - that would be something!

John3432

I can suggest installing a silicone sleeve, it's a useful thing.

Christopher

This process is virtually endless.

Amber1273

Do you need to send it to him? And what is the value of the coupling?

Cheryl

Your position is certainly interesting, but... 1. The title of the topic implies a discussion of types of skimmers, their comparison, and differences. 2. If this is a homemade device, at the very least, a detailed answer to questions about what it is made of and how it was made is needed. Why it was done this way and that way. 3. Try to share the entire manufacturing process, not just a brief description of the product. Similar to how aquariums are presented, starting from the beginning and showing what it looks like now. If you could also include the price, it would resemble an advertisement.

Loretta5483

On what basis are these recommendations made? What should be the ratio between the volume of foam, performance, and dimensions?

Diana8604

I adhere to such ratios or based on specific experience using the skimmer.

Tanner

I will figure out what to write and how without you. You mixed up the sign a bit; there are no such rules here.

Elizabeth6302

Can your posts be understood in this capacity?

Chris

I would advise you not to impose your rules on others. The forum was created for the promotion and advertising of the company. The forum was not created for a specific company and provides an opportunity for advertising and promotion to everyone on equal terms, which I am taking advantage of. All our developments are intellectual property, and I have the right to take measures against excessive encroachments on them. I suggest we close this issue here.

Lee425

From this point, could you elaborate more on what specific developments you mentioned and what exactly this is?

Thomas5021

We have interesting relationships on the FORUM!!! ... And I am satisfied with Sasha's pen.

Jessica6754

I've been reading about this topic for a long time. If everything in life is so stressful and considered a trade secret, then you have a section to showcase your products in the store with photos and prices, and that's it. The fact that you are not asked about everything jealously like a lady... and there's nothing to fear from competition. Some things will be borrowed from you, and some you will borrow... progress doesn't stand still. I'm sure that at some point you also took someone else's brand and reworked it.

Angela

The vibration from the pump does not transfer to the housing, it operates more quietly. I don't think it needs to be sent.

Skimmer circulation D 200 mm, H 600 mm For aquariums 500-1000 l Air intake 1200 l/h Water circulation 2500 l/h Power consumption 42 W The main difference from similar products is that the pump is not rigidly attached to the body, but stands on silicone supports, which significantly reduces noise.

Linda

I got a pen. I ordered a custom sample in advance. DSHV + volume. Well, what can I say... Actually, there's nothing to say... It works, I like it. Respect and appreciation.

Angel628

I really want to see the photos.

William

I really liked the post 174 Skimmer circulation D 200mm, H 450mm Pump Aquamedic PH2500 Power consumption 22W Air intake 650L/h Water circulation up to 1300L/h For aquariums up to 500L Well made, I think, and works great. Well done.

Caitlin3279

I'll get a camera and post it. For now, I can only send MMS.

Darlene4238

I understand everything.. Maybe it's not just me..

Kayla7655

I don't understand!!! What is this "king size" penis on the photo? What is the diameter of the tube? What pump will it work with? (or how many pumps)

Caroline1599

The baby has a width of 450mm and a height of 750mm. There will be two hundred.

Steven757

Cluster skimmers, I saw them in use by one of your clients (a family friend). Many have praised them, but I must say that in most cases they are very productive skimmers. I'm thinking of getting one for my large setup from you over time as well.))))

Chad231

Who are these many who criticized? This is the first time I hear this about the "penniki." Can you be more specific?

Alexander

I know such people. I think soon we can get personal so that the country knows its heroes. As for aquarium service, I know that very often people ask for help after dealing with such unfortunate specialists.

Larry9400

I think the PERSONALITIES felt the loss. I am currently taking care of my parents' aquarium. I made some changes, replaced the light, and slightly upgraded the skimmer (but I think it should be changed). Right now, it has an alternative external filter charged with activated carbon from Aquamedic, and from Coral Clavularia (which is dying). In terms of fish, there’s a Doctor fish that has nothing to eat, female fish, tomato clowns, and a butterflyfish. The rock is S.R.C. (dry reef rocks) covered in filamentous algae. The aragonite is populated with DSB, but the rock doesn’t look great; I hope to improve it. So far, everything is just theoretical, but in practice, it’s quite different...

Kevin8087

In connection with the recent posts in the thread, I have an interesting question - what is the warranty on the product? I will ask both competing organizations. What is the warranty on your product? What does it cover if it is limited?

Heather

The body of the skimmer, the pump, and the impeller can easily last a year or more... As for the pump itself, the question is more complicated in terms of how to determine the cause... Practice has shown that there can be situations where it can burn out not due to the manufacturer's fault, and it can be difficult to understand the reason afterward. Anything can break, but the important question is what happens next. We can repair, replace, or provide another one as a substitute almost immediately, and this is very important for MA.

Melissa1838

For your big.....

Rodney7316

It looks impressive!!! What is the volume? And the price, please?

Tracy

The RE recommends a similar one with approximately the same parameters for 4000-10000 liter aquariums. I think it will handle 5000 liters quite densely populated, and in about two to three months, it will be clear how well it performs.

Eric5208

Bubble King is a pay-for-show product. The cost of the skimmer is up to 500 euros, which is a small amount compared to the selling price.

Debra

There is plenty of show-off there, but the cost of what the Redragon 2 pump offers is more than 500. The pump itself is expensive, and for good reason – it is a synchronous motor with frequency control and the highest energy efficiency class.

Joseph591

As far as I understand, they also make the pump, so I think the cost price is lower.

Lindsay

The same can be said about Mercedes and BMW... just show-offs! Why do people buy such expensive cars...?

Jeanne

You think too highly of RE. The Redragon2 pump is a serious product; it's not even an Ascol, which they also didn't make. Such products are made by large factories. RE just buys them, modifies them, and puts on their stickers. I do the same thing.

Jason

Recirculating skimmer, external H750mm, D450mm Two Askoll 9000 pumps For aquariums up to 7000l Air intake 5500l/h Water circulation up to 7500l/h Start

Paul

Thank you, Sasha, but I think it will be too much. My big one is not 5000 liters, but 600 liters ))))) But the filter is great, and I still need to figure out how to connect the plumbing for my big one. The renovation is in full swing...

Vanessa

Oh... RD2... the pump is certainly interesting, no doubt about that... but its origin... hmmm... Askol makes it? Seems like Italians... but RD2, I think, is made by the Chinese. In general, it's possible that RD2 is actually more affordable.

Stacy6866

The subtle hint was not understood. Okay. I'll ask differently: Honkar or Grundfos? Have you already made your choice? When will we see the skimmer on the controlled pump?

Jessica5348

For now, I can't say for sure, the issue is being studied..... At the moment, in most cases, Laguna is sufficient, of course, this is not the limit... Technically, we are ready to solve any option, at the level.

Anthony

Did you take the machine from the Luhansk people?

Rodney3101

Can I find out what amount I should expect for the penalty? The volume of the aquarium is 250-300 liters.

Patricia

Iron horse replaces the collective farm horse.

Julie4738

150 dollars

Ryan

Hello! What material is it and how much does it weigh?

Marie5348

Vitalik, this is acrylic. What used to require two pieces can now be done with one, and there is also the possibility to improve the geometry (I don't mean the inscription). Technically, it is possible to make the impeller completely solid, but for now, I don't see the point in that; the combination of the disk material and the pins we are using has turned out to be very successful.

Theresa5149

Can the "snails" for the pumps be machined on this machine?

Michele

If you don't mind, I can share my achievements. Material Murytal® C

Sheila1322

Yes, of course, you can.
