Hey Jeremy,
Paul here. :) Is RE planning on making a larg cone skimmer? Not that I want one... :D

Hey Paul! RE will be making a larger model, however this one will handle up to a 400gal lightly stocked, and 250gal - 300gal heavily loaded. I forget your total volume again?

Total volume should be ~ 400 gallons. I've got a 300 Internal right now. But you never know... :)

Paul,
Your 300Int is still going to outperform this cone. The larger cone, ALPHA 300, would be able to keep up with it when it comes out, but not the 250.

So in an effort to beat up on the competition even a little more, the mad skimmer scientist himself (Klaus), decided to push the envelope of this pump even more. He thought that 38w and 1500LPH of air draw just wasn't good enough (yeah, right), so he customized a brand new venturi for those larger tanks that will now have this pump running up to 1800LPH of air draw!!!
For those of you who are going to run these on smaller systems (180-200gal or less) the standard 1500LPH venturi will be for you. Those who are going bigger, put that super venturi on there and let the monster do it's damage!
Guys, we're still talking around 40w of power, with 1800LPH of air draw on this little motor. This skimmer will make some serious FOAM!!!
The skimmers have been released from customs and should be in our warehouse by the end of this week!

1800 LPH of air out of a 1500? That's impressive.
BTW Jeremy... I appreciate you guys putting instructions for BKs on your website. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't even know how to plug my RD's plug in. :o
