using deltec apf600 skimmer?


using deltec apf600 skimmer?

hi, i have had the skimmer set-up and running now for a few days properly, and it was set-up from the instructions and they say that you should set it up and turn the air valve to 2 oclock, and the skimmer should have air bubbles half way up the tube towards the dispenser so i set it at this level, but if i have it at this level the skimmate wont get to the tube? or will it work its way to the tube? or how should i set it up, how far up the tube should the bubbles go?

sorry but the instructiions are s**t!

thanx for replies in advance.

did you get the recommended pump? i could not find any online literature to help you. it looks like an insump style skimmer. my guess is the water level in the sump is to low. i could only find a small pic of one. there should be a valve on the outlet tube. thy closing this a little. this should raise the water in the skimmer up.

hth,
