This skimmer has the gate valve modification and the recirculation modification and I also have the mesh for the mesh mod if you want to do that. Because it is recirculating you need either a feed pump or direct feed from the overflow. It comes with the Sedra 5000. This pump needs a replacement ceramic shaft. I broke it trying to clean it last time but went on to use it anyway. Just didn't start properly every time I shut the pump off. You can get a new ceramic shaft at custom aquatics for about $9.
Swats28 - Brian.. I got your PM about the skimmer and sent you a message. I just got in the replacement ceramic shaft for the pump. Let me know if you are still interested in the skimmer.
Let me know asap. My wife is now working over on Dauphin Island and is living over near you during the week. I could send it along and see if she could meet up with you if you can't make it to Daphne.
