I will look into them for sure. Thanks for the help and if I ever get that old thing running I'll post about it.I've used about 10 different brands or so through the years, and for the value, I think Bubble Magus Elite's are kind of my favorite

The bubbles should break about an inch below the neck ring. To get that dark black skimate you see it’s very dry and most likely from carbon dosing.could someone please post a video of a properly tuned/functioning skimmer (pref a red sea if possible)? I feel like I’m not setting mine properly. I try to tune it so that the bubbles just barely float over the top occasionally, but this seems to result mostly in fairly clear water after a few days. If I tune it lower than that, the skimmate clogs up in the neck and never seems to make it to the cup.
I’ve seen images in the past of ppl showing their skim mate cups as a dark black or brown color for the most part, and I just never see anything close to that.
This is about as dark as mine gets…
Both work but i would take the waveline pump on the RLSS over the aquatrance pump on the RO.What skimmer is better? A RLSS DC skimmer with pump and controller or a Reef Octopus 150 INT?

I have a Tunze 9012 Skimmer and it used to work fine but then our sump got too full (pump died) and since then, it foams out the back of the unit by the air valve. Am I supposed to open or close the air valve and is the foaming out the back normal???This is the official R2R Skimmer Q&A Thread where the answers to your questions are as concentrated as skimmate!
We will do our best as a community to answer questions you have concerning protein skimmers so ask away!
Thank you!
