Other question is the air peace that sucks the air in for the protein skimmer what size is it, I have a hose that goes out side to suck in fresh air the houses in side diameter is 3/8th inch will that slip over the air intake on the skimmer. If need to talk to me about it my number is 707-499-4168 thanks

Yes, that skimmer will work on your system if the system has a heavy fish population. In terms of the air hose, it uses silicone tubing that is 5/16" ID.
