Remora Pro Help

Unless the body of the Remora is leaking, there's definitely something wrong with the pump or the injector.

The water pumped into the skimmer has to go somewhere, either the pump is not pumping very much water into the skimmer, or there's a restriction with the injector.

How much water is the injector spraying into the skimmer vs. the amount the pump moves when it is disconnected to the skimmer?

This happen to me, I found that the foam insert to protect stuff to get sucked in pump was full of gunk. When I took it off, the skimmer started to work nicely again.

I am currently at school but when i get home i will check about the foam, I know it is not leaking...I am using a Maxi-Jet 1200 as the pump, I bought it used and the pump that was on it the wires were frayed so i couldnt use it so i just hooked up an extra Maxi-Jet I had. It had worked for a while then now it is not a constant stream. Which would lead me to think that the water pressure isnt sufficient enough.

well, the pro needs a stronger pump than a MJ 1200, so that is most likely your problem.

The Remora Pro needs a Mag 3 to drive it. The basic Remora uses the Maxi jet 1200. Regard Ken
