    Default WTB skimmer body

    I'm looking for a skimmer body to use for a DIY project. Must have an intact body but I don't want a pump (unless it's an Eheim) and the some damage to the collection cup is probably fine (depending on what it is). Must be 6" diameter or bigger and the body (without cup) has to be less than 24" tall. Something like a EuroReef would be ideal but other brands may work. I'm not looking to spend a lot of $ on it. Please PM me if you have something that fits this description (including a picture in the PM would be awesome).

    Thanks!
    Tom

    That was a faster response than I was expecting! Does the skimmer cup attach to the body with a threaded nut or snap-lock? A couple of pics would help me determine whether it will suit my needs. Specifically, a whole skimmer shot and one looking down into the body (with the cup off) would be awesome.

    Thanks!

    Dang. I don't think the lock style will work. Otherwise the height and diameter are spot on. Thanks for trying.
