Do anyone know how to fine tune AquaC Remora skimmer. There is only one
thing possible to do with it, it is to move collection cup up or down. So,
what is happening when it is moved one way or the other? Does anyone know?

Just puts it closer to the bubbles or father away so you get ether
darker up top#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#or more watery close to the
bottom#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

If you move the collection cup down you will get a wetter skimmate. If
you move it up you will get the opposite. You want a wet dark skimmate.

You can also get the optional bubble trap/skimmer box
that will produce more skimmate by skimming off the surface
of the water. Helps a lot! And you can take a piece of silicone
tubing and split it length wise and wrap around the square base
of the cup, pie cut the corners some, glue the ends together.
This will seal the "cup square" against the skimmer body. Helps a little.

The Remora will produce more of a liquid green tea skimmate than say
a needlewheel skimmer design.
