Help with Tunze 9010

[globaldesigns]

I must say my thoughts on the Tunze 9010 are not of a good nature. I am running this skimmer with the EuroReef RS180, and I can't seem to get any constant skimmate out of the Tunze.

As of currently, I have just cleaned the unit again, and placed it in a gentle current area of my refuge, placing even before the EuroReef which is not after it in a different compartment, so it shouldn't affect performance of the Tunze. But still no skimmate.

I have had this unit going for 3-4 months now, and must say it is garbage, unless someone can assist. I have tried everything from placement to opening the air valve to closing it. To using it with or without the standpipe. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING, BUT THINK THIS IS DEFECTIVE...

Any assistance would be helpful, thanks.
