Thanks Steven.
I bought a skimmer to use it on my 30 gallons cube tank. It is an amiracle style skimmer. I only can say It is junk.
I am seriusly thinking to use the collection cup and tube of that skimmer to build a new one, but the bak pak I think is my best option. I can do it with glass, so....
The most important thing is to build the cheap and very usefull skimmer. Maybe a Ron�s design will help me to design mine, but the most important thing is get a skimmer that wil not use a big pump, only a powerhead as Rio 600 or 800 with the venturi kit include it.
Any Idea?

to bad, but I can sypathize with you Jose. I am in canada and only live
couple hours from the border. That couple hours might as well be 500 when
you try to get stuff shipped up here. Like you said double/triple the cost
or they just wont ship at all. I would glady drive down to the states but
unfortantly the closest big city to me is Minneapolis which is a good 12-14
hour drive away.

Jose, could you not drive up into california, they are probably loaded
with
reef stores and such where you could get some cheap stuff.

Easier and cheaper to buy it, yes, but I live in Mexico and the shipping and
handling costs will double the price. Thatns without count the duties and
taxes, that is why I am seriusly thinking on build one.
Can you help me Shane?
Thanks in advance.

Easier and cheaper to buy one. Honestly, probably more efficient of a unit
as well.
IMO
