Yep this is correct as said above it needs to break in, if you have a look at the instructions it talks about this, pretty much the same you get with all new skimmers they need to break in.
If after a few days it still does it, have look at the water level you have it in, should not be less than 9" and no more than 12" optimum is around 10-11" |

thanks for the reply my tank is a 155 gal and sump is 30 gal the skimmer sits in 9" of water and when i first hooked it up i had it set on 3 and it started to produce skimate fast. so i left the house for about 4 hrs and when i came home it was overflowing water so i set it back to off and same thing still over flowing

spot on
The NAC5E is not imported, there was just no call for it, in fact I think BM stopped making it although its on their web site. Do you need only a hang on back? If so how big is your tank? |
