Does your euroreef "gurgle"

[BC564]

Mine doesnt gurgle at all....and Im not understanding why it would...guess its my thick skull ...

if you get sucking noises and it's not coming from your airline, it could mean your sump water depth isn't sufficient. this will create a little vortex at the venturi (water end)hence the sucking noises. if this is the situation, increasing the water depth in which your skimmer sits can get rid of this.

Got two RS250s here. Mine gurgled from the get go, even with the gate valves, so I capped them like so...


Worked like a charm.

As for the airlines, that's another story. My airlines kept clogging too frequently, so I pulled the valves off....just a few days ago actually. So far, IME, they make more noise now, through the airline. Of the two skimmers, one is noisier than the other, and unfortunately I sleep beside the noisier one. Been unplugging it at night. Thinking of putting the valves back on, but they seem to be skimming better without them.
I'm in a pickle .
