I am trying to figure out what you mean by adjusting the water level so it is 1/2 way up the neck under the collection cup. How do you adjust this? I thought the only adjustment on these skimmers was the air screw.

I have been having a lot of trouble getting my Berlin skimmer to work properly and I recently ordered a new Kent Marine Venturi for it to try and increase the skimmate production.

on a turbo skimmer you have adjustment on pump for flow....
and on canister you have adjustment for airflow....

Makes sense now. I have the regular Berlin model and not the turbo so I do not have the adjustment on the pump.

I think I have finally got it tweaked. Took a long time though. Trying to get it setup properly was a pain, it was either the collection cup would fill with water and very little foam or too much foam that most of it was overflowing the collection cup and leaving a scum on the sides of my sump and returning back into the tank. Hopefully it is corrected now.
