Hi The new job in NC is going well. Taking care of the tanks is about 50% of my time. Then there are meetings, education, setting up purchasing accounts with all the former wholesalers, and did I mention meetings. Been collecting FW fish once but no diving yet. Most of the SW systems (3) are stand alone and have aquanetics skimmers on them. This is a Beckett type skimmer, with a valve controlling the water being released, but unlike the one on the reef in liquid sunshine, they dont have the downdraft towers. There are three small intake ports on the top of the skimmer box, one of which is valved on some of the skimmers: they all look like they have been modified. Aquanetics is out of business. Can anyone help me identify the function of the three ports? Eric primarypredator@nc.rr.com

so far so good, i have installed the Korallin Ca reactor, and it's working okay after four days as far as fine tuning it in, but we'll see how things go... again thanks for all the feedback on which way to go.
