Just wondering if anyone knows how to get a darker skimmate? I've tried to cut back the input, result is I have to also close the output a bit to keep the bubbles up near the top of the riser. But what happens then is, the water level in the skimmer box goes to high and as a result, stops making bubbles. I get nice dry foam, just not very dark. I have noticed the bubbles in the riser are quite large, I seem to remember reading that the smaller bubble the better. Anyone know how to get a smaller bubble from the spray injection? When I did have the old air-stone skimmer running I got very back/green skimmate....

Thanks, Walter
