Wait a few days for it to break in. You will also notice that putting your hands in the tank will cause it to stop working briefly and produce some micro bubbles. Actually, I find it will produce micro bubbles for an hour after cleaning the collection cup as well.
I was impressed with this skimmer from the start but since I added a sump to my system (with the intention of getting an in sump skimmer) this thing is working overtime. I am pulling more skimate a day and it has gone from tea colored to dark dark greeny black. As long as it works this well I will be keeping it.
