Default Please help me with my skimmer o_O

If someone could come over and play with my skimmer it would be much apreciated, I just cant seem to get it going right. It IS skimming.. just that the skimming is happening just above the reaction chamber and making one heck of a mess o_O As much as I love unhooking everything and sticking my hand into the tube to wipe away all that slimey green goo......

If that's the case Beth, you could try closing the gate valve a little more and raising the water level in the skimmer.

Just make sure when you throw it out your window that it lands in my car
