I recently purchased a Davy Jones skimmate locker and have been having issues setting it up to shut off correctly.
Its hooked up to a Lifereef skimmer, and the air tubing which should signal the switch to shut off the pump is probably about 10' long. Connections seem tight in the tubing as its no different than RO setup. I have inserted the tubing and its shield all the way into the locker, and the locker will fill completely and the pump will never be shut off. Seems kinda weird to me, but also seems there isn't enough pressure in the canister to create the force needed to trigger the switch.
Anyone else have issues getting this to work or can give some pointers to what I could possibly be doing wrong?
