Default Protein Skimmer Question (Newbie)

The seaclone will stop doing it by itself, and constant adjustment of the
air control makes for a unstable seaclone, in that it wont be running
optimally.

Optimally from what I've found, and been told so far, you should do as the
instructions on it state, to turn it all the way open to all the way closed
two times, then open it 1 and 1/2 turn on the air mixture controller.

At first I didnt think this was working right, now it's skimming whenever
there is enough waste in the tank to skim. Like when I did a water change
last night and poured in the new water which really moved around my sandbed,
the skimmer went crazy for about 4 hours, now it's skimming the best it's
skimmed so far, pulling lots of organics out of the tank that were stirred
up by disturbing the sandbed.

If the seaclone shoots bubbles you adjust the air and water mix, maybe the
Jebo is the same?
