I'll join in.

I usually clean all of mine every other day, so it will be interesting for me to see what they look like after a week.

I'm in. If she will let me, I'll also post a pic of my wife's reaction when I clean it in the kitchen sink. Just the pic though because the audio probobly would not pass the moderators acceptance.

Sure, why not. My skimmer is constantly adjusted because of water evap messing with the depth where skimmer is located. Lets see how it compares.

Is it too late to join still if not i would like to join!

And folks can really join in anytime. Plus after the set week match - folks could jump on at any point and run their own week of pics to compare also.

Super stoked this thread didn't need bumped today but here is the running roster as of tonight(will update nightly with new additions to the event).

Team roster for the Dirty Skimmer "CUP".....as of now - these folks will be getting an @ tag the day of the game start Mondy the 8th - 1 week from today and the count down starts now!
For those of you that enjoy stats...you may have noticed the new tagged and mentioned stats we each have under our names/profile pic and info that is displayed next to our posts on the left. The majority of those are at 0 for most folk. Well....... Those that make the roster will be getting an @ tag on Monday the 8th(start date for this match) putting your mentioned stat at 1 now...the crowd goes wild.
Taking it a step further - I will also be tagging all roster teammates that make the final list to the specific Dirty Skimmer "CUP" thread - which will take your tagged stat to 1 as well - its the start to building up your stats and no more 0's for us.lol.

I clean outside for the wifey but slip and use the sink every so often - not often do i get away with it tho.lol nasty stuff. Doing it outside with the hose helps tho cause i double the deed and dilute the fish leftovers and use it in watering a few citrus trees i have going on the side of the house. Win win.lol
