Default A way to avoid surface scum

I guess that would have been easier than trying to describe it, huh?

I'm sorry that the pictures are so crappy, nobody seems to have a good
picture up. The second one is better than the first, and the third is
probably best of all.

TOM/Oscar Enterprise's (it's the exact same thing...)

And, finally, another unhelpful picture (half-way down, on the right) :-)

That's the trick, getting the right balancing point. I can make a box,
and make a pocket of air, and test it, then adjust things and test it
again, etc. Sounds like a lot of trial and error.

Can you send me a link to the cup you bought for your system? I'd like to
see it. Visuals are great!

The only thing I don't know is why the cup, which is free-floating, sits
neither too high nor too low in the water. :-)
