Asunto: RE: Better skimmer please !!!
It may also be the pump. The mags are crap, and it very well could be
pushing less water and air than when it was new. You may consider trying a
nice mag pump or something like that. My recommendation, if you go that
route, would be to oversize the pump. Get one larger than recommended. You
can then put a ball valve on it and turn it down a bit if you find it is
pushing too much water.
Just a thought....

Hi reefman,have confidence in the berlin.Skimming depends alot on
water condition and most of all on bio-load.If your tank has only 4 fish,you
did not mention what else,but it may just be that there is nothing to
skim..What I like about berlin is that they don't collect only water.Mine
can go 5-7 days without collecting,then all of a sudden it starts
skimming.The bubbles are really microscopic so you need shit in the water
for them to start collecting.
Be patient.
On the other hand if you are not collecting and not producing any
bubbles in the tube then you have a problem.
It may just be your tank is cristal clean and does not need to be
skimmed..

Hi !!
I have a Red Sea Berlin Classic skimmer with a RIO 2500
pump.
I have almost 4-5 months that I dont get junk on it. I think
is not enough. My tank is a 42 gallons tank with 4 fishes.
Can anybody recomend me a better skimmer? I am looking for a
Hang On Tank model.
Thank you in advance...
