skimmer help!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a tunze 9002 and it is producing a lot of micro bubbles
I cant get it to stop....... I have taken it apart and cleaned it what can I do?????????????????? |
how Long has it been going?
How old is the tank? Has the tank received any supplements or additives lately? What is the level sitting at for the tunze? the skimmer needs to have the special film on it to help coat the impeller and the acrylic. Have u fed any Live food , Brine, Mysis shrimp ,.. |
-tank has been running for 5 weeks ...
-not shure how old the skimmer is..but was running befor on a friends qt tank -water level is right on the mark -feed alittle brine to 3 blue greens - nothing added to tank thanks |
I'd give it a couple days to break in.
|
Epoxy is known to cause that, have you used any?:idea:
|
yes did epoxy sum rock together
will it go away after awile??? |
i had to turn off skimmer and do a water change
then start it up again may be necessary to repeat soon you will get so its running properly again |
ya that may be the issue turn the skimmer level down and let it run its course.
|
thanks for the help
going to do a 5 gal water change today |
You can lower the water level a bit too and that may help. The blue water line on the DOC skimmers is the maximum level, not the suggested level. When my 9016 was in my tank I usually had issues when the water was at the line vs. a little below it.
