well here's the poop. mine came with no instructions. but its solid as a rock. ive researched enough about these things that it was pretty much pull it out of the box and screw the thing into that thing and plop it in the water.

Have the HOB remora on my 30g and its disgusting what it pulls with just 2 fish in it O_O
Took 2 weeks to completely be broken in.

let me find the link to it.

150 Gallon Fresh Saltwater Fish tank Protein Skimmer | eBay

its the bubble magus nac7 cone clone.

great construction. no directions... no assy no running. but i figured out how to drop it in a bucket full of bathtub water in a matter of minutes.

no provision for a separate collection container but thats nothing that a drill bit and a nipple cant fix.

whups i almost said something that could have been construed as inappropriate.

its a bubble magus clone. same basic design, same artmann pump! came with the new pinwheel that is all the rave now. same tube to control the water level inside the cone. same everything for the most part... just not the bubble magus name.

if this is close enough for you i will help you with anything i can.
