Dismantled my old waterfall this week, and building a new one. Took out the old Skippy Filter, which was not working and am going to install a new idea from Koilady. Everything is going well. Hope to have the new filter up and running by tomorrow. Now to put the waterfall back the way I want it.

Is that Koilady the one in CA? I listened to her on a radio program....very informative.

The Skippy is not doing the job. Water is always muky. Worked really well the first couple of years, and now is not.

Though the Skippy is one of my least favorite filters, it maybe just your Skippy needs to be cleaned. It isn't really a mech filter but it could function as one when half clogged up. Did your Skippy have a bottom drain?
