Wow an Aquaclear eh? so does that mean that if I just raised my water return so that it breaks the water it may work as well?? Also a quick question about foam, I have never seen foam from an aquaclear or are you talking about a skimmer, and if so how do you 'use' the foam I thought that you just tossed it? (but I have never had a skimmer so I don't really know).

Thanks again
