Help with Tunze 9010
 

I must say my thoughts on the Tunze 9010 are not of a good nature. I am running this skimmer with the EuroReef RS180, and I can't seem to get any constant skimmate out of the Tunze.

As of currently, I have just cleaned the unit again, and placed it in a gentle current area of my refuge, placing even before the EuroReef which is not after it in a different compartment, so it shouldn't affect performance of the Tunze. But still no skimmate.

I have had this unit going for 3-4 months now, and must say it is garbage, unless someone can assist. I have tried everything from placement to opening the air valve to closing it. To using it with or without the standpipe. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING, BUT THINK THIS IS DEFECTIVE...

Any assistance would be helpful, thanks.

I,m guessing you read the link I posted for you if your original thread? Nothing in there to help?

I see you posted on the equipment forum on RC. Perhaps, {if you never already}, try in the Tunze forum. Rodger is usually good for help.

i found on my tunze skimmer if i turn it off for about a hour or so everday that it works great .read on boards that it helps .put mine on a timmer and now it works great .before it did suck

Doug - thanks for the info, but nothing helped. I took your advice and posted under the tunze section

mytank90 - I will try your suggestion, I heard of that a couple times, shouldn't have to do this, but can't hurt to try.
