Need some help/advise here:
I have a Coralife skimmer on my 125, in the sump.
Its been running for two weeks and the water still looks like a snow globe.
I've tried the recco's from the store such as removing the bubble box and just running the outlet into the sump. Noting seems to help...................anyone have experience or advise?
Thanks.
Charlie

Do you have a bubble trap in the sump to stop the bubbles from going to the return pump then back to the DT? That's your best courses of action.

My advise.....
Take the skimmer outside.
Put it behind the back tire of your car.
Put the car in reverse.
Back up.

:D

Thanks..............
In the reviews and comments I've read not much good about the super skimmer.
How about the Aqua C EV180?
Thanks in advance for comments

That's a good skimmer. Aqua C makes an affordable skimmer that performs pretty decently. It's definitely better than the Coralife!
