air bubbles

Question
You had mentioned adjusting the skimmer.  How?  It looks like the bubbles are comming from the inlet heads.  We had the skimmer off for 7 days due to getting rid of the red slime. thanks, chuck

Answer
please refresh my memory with the type of skimmer you have?

Most skimmers have an adjustment to raise and lower the water level inside the reaction chamber, and to adjust how much air goes into the chamber and mixes with the water.

you can adjust the water level by 'restricting' the water as it exits the skimmer.  Some skimmers have a valve, some have a tube.  You can raise or lower the tube or open and close the valve..

this will raise or lower the water inside...  the higher the water lvel the more water will go into the collection cup.

good luck and let meknow what skimmer you have and we can look up the operating instructions and adjustment procedures..

thanks
