I have three inch adaptors that work well on a "No Nich" skimmer to allow a three inch gravity flow from them if necessary or are they already plumbed 1 1/2 inch through the pond wall?
Hi Kent, yes, the two 3" BDs are going to be direct suction to the pumps and then on to each Nexus unit. There won't be any vortex/settlement chambers before the Nexi. Do you think that this will be okay, or do you see any faults/problems with this set-up?

Unfortunately, the two no niche skimmers are already plumbed 1.5" through the pond wall, so there's really not much that I can do at this point. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do with these two no niche skimmers. Your input is much appreciated.
