5. Maintenance
The mechanical pre-filter of the skimmer should be cleaned - depending on the organic load of the
aquarium - every 2 - 4 weeks. At the latest if it is clogged and the capacity of the skimmer
decreases. The air input into the skimmer is reduced then. Also, the pump housing with the
impeller
should be cleaned from time to time, at the latest when the air input decreases. The foam
collection cup should be cleaned regularly - as with all skimmers. You can remove it easily from the
reaction pipe.
6. Failures
- Too little air - no foam.
The pump is not placed deep enough into the water. The bottom of the
collection cup should touch the water level. Clean the air injection.
- Pump failure.
Check the magnet and impeller. If there are any calcareous residues in the pump
housing, remove them mechanically or by using vinegar. If the impeller is damaged, it must be
replaced.
