Yeah, must have had a lot of these solvents still in there because it took good 3 days to start skimming at full capacity.
But now i am very happy with it.
A lot of air to water mixing ratio (700l/h), good stable foam, not sensitive to a sump water level variations (well unless i do a water change and drop it right down to a pump intake) and very very quiet, almost silent. I guess these rubber pads under the pump and under the skimmer itself is a very good idea.
