Operating Your Skimmer
To tune the skimmer to your aquarium, simply close the output valve by
turning it counter clockwise until you retain pea size bubbles at the point
where the collection cup mounts to the skimmer body. Allow the skimmer
to acclimate to the new setting for 24hrs or more before making any further
adjustments. The more closed the output valve becomes the wetter the
collection will become.
WARNING:
Do not attempt
dialing in a protein skimmer
any sooner than 2 weeks.
The wetter the collection
(more closed the valve is)
the greater chance for the
skimmer to overflow.
