Hi all,
Got myself a glass surface skimmer set similar to the aquascaper glass pipe work set featured in one of George farmer’s recent videos and I’m having an issue.
Does the skimmer require a certain flow rate in order to work correctly? I can barely get the water to be sucked down the top of the skimmer, so much so that I can see the scum “float” back out of the skimming portion. And this is with the knob at the bottom turned fully closed for max skimming as well
You can see where the water level drops to the skimmer. When I place a blade of hairgrass in the tube it gets sucked down into the filter after a while.
Any help please?
Thanks
