Hey guys,

so Ive got my Aqua Medic TurboFloter Shorty 5000 skimmer that Im trying to get it to start collecting.

It seems to be running very well, now that I can run it in my new sump rather than externally.

As soon as I get the venturi going after the chamber fills it has a ton of fine bubbles and the foam goes up the reaction pipe quite heavily. At the start it collects somewhat brown water but not that much. I think it might be running too wet, but I havent ever run a skimmer before.

What do you guys think Id do? I feel like at the rate it goes right now itd fill with not that dirty of water in like a couple hours. I obviously dont want to be changing it every couple hours, and Id also want it to collect more scum, less water.

Can anyone help me tune this thing?
