Over the last couple of weeks I have noticed that my Euro-Reef Skimmer
has not been collecting much DOC as it has before. I have it set so it might even collect wetfoam,(riserupallthe way) but and still nothing. There is alot of dry foam at the top but the resevoirt will not fillup with anything. Is there somthing I maybe that needs replacement? There is 1000000'sof microbubbles. Whaaaaats Up with that?

How long has it been since you cleaned up the main chamber, and
dismantled the pump, as well? I have had mine only about 6 months, and twice have taken it down to totally clean, run the sedra in a bucket of vinigar water, and reamed out the main chamber with a (clean, bought for this purpose) toilet brush, then soaked it in vinegar water. -- ----- Billy ----- Sorry I missed church, I've been busy going homosexual and practicing witchcraft. ----- "Rick" wrote in message oups.com... | Over the last couple of weeks I have noticed that my Euro-Reef Skimmer | has not been collecting much DOC as it has before.

Dump some phyto in and see if it catches it. |
