So if I turn my flow on my Oase 600 on full or even 3/4 of the way, the filter makes a hell of a noise, the skimmer bobs up and down, sometimes sinks and it sounds like it’s starting up over and over again.
Trying to understand why. One thought is that the glass skimmer I bought was off eBay and the plastic part that bobs up and down, doesn’t fit tightly enough in the main part allowing air to rush down the sides and causing issues pulling water back into the filter. Has anyone else had this issue? I bought it as I broke the last one cleaning it.
I’m thinking I need to buy a new glass pipework set, or I might try another one that’s not a skimmer and see if that’s the problem.
Another thought is I don’t have all the trays in the filter, as I used one with filter media to seed my 250 on my 60P that’s been running for 2 weeks now.
Anyone had this problem, suggestions welcome?!
