It's either low bubbles like in the picture or overflowing and filling the cup with water. I raised it to about 6 inches of water depth and that didn't help. Do I need to raise further?
In the picture you can see I have toilet paper stuffed in both air holes and the red valued cranked as closed as it will go. If I pulled the toilet paper out of either hole, it overflows.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm cycling a new 65 gallon tank and excited about it. It's taken me forever to get to this point and tuning this skimmer is one of the last things I've got to get under control (famous last words).
Any comments on the plumbing would be appreciated as well. You can see the T valve I added. Behind the skimmer is a ball valve with another hose for water changes. Was a pain to do, but I'm hoping it makes the maintenance a little easier. All the connections open me up to more leaks, but so far so good.
