skimmer help!!! no micro bubbles

[Amadod2]

Hi everyone, so this week i took my tank apart for a full rebuild when i was doing a clean (the tank was filled with water and bleach) i ran all my gear, my skimmer was running fine. Today i started putting everything back in running condition and when i plugged in the skimmer it's not producing micro bubbles. So it's a SWC 160 and the motor is running and there is nothing blocking the impeller, so the air tube is not blocked. Any ideas???

New, or newly cleaned skimmers always take several days to settle in. Even more so if there's no nutrients or waste in the water for it to pull out.

In the future, I would recommend vinegar and not bleach on a skimmer.

There are still bubbles in the body, but not going up the neck? Or are there no bubbles at all?

There are bubbles but not micro bubbles

Air intake is probably plugged or the hose came of the air intake.

Is it... freshwater?

I took it apart and for what ever reason it's working again, no clue why but it is
