CPR skimmer

[vettesarebest]

Hey I just got a CPR refugium hang on the back with the protein skimmer. I cannot get the venturi adjussted so the bubbles are small enough to skim. Any ideas?

 

[tonester_man]

The air tube has a knob to adjust the bubbles, you could try that, glad to hear it's working for ya

 

[vettesarebest]

Well its not working lol. I tried adjusting the knob but the bubbles are very big. Is it very sensitive.

 

[tonester_man]

Sorry wish i could be of more help. I didn't use it for that long.

give it time to break in too.... if its really clean then it's going to take about a week or so until it starts producing decent skimmate

 

[slayer]

you can buy a finer air valve to regulate the air flow. Alot better than the one supplied... i just brought a such a valve to regulate the output of my ca reactor ,, unfortunatly for me it came in a pack of 7 (only needed one)...you can have one if you like (if i ever find out where this secret meeting is held lol!)

jaime

[tsciarini]

Well if everyone knew then it wouldnt be a secret!!! LOL
We're going to draw maps for the next meeting

Ok but what about the bubbles shouldn't they still be small? I really like this thing. But I need to get the light.

 

[tsciarini]

no... they're going to stay big until the skimmer breaks in.

 

[vettesarebest]

Thanks Mr. Tony! Thanks Tonester Man for the Great deal.
