Default New Sump and Ampmaster for 20g

Hello,

Finally got some salt water in the sump and have the Ampmaster running, feeding just the PM Bullet-2 skimmer. It's quite a thing to see the system start up.

It looks like a car engine. The whole manifold sort of shake a bit and the long pipe to the skimmer looks like how the exhaust on a car shake during ignition as well.

But one thing kinda bugs me right off the bat. I know it's new salt so skimmer haven't been run it yet and excess bubbles are being released. But take a look at this picture. The whole first section of the sump is acting as a skimmer of its own. Notice how much bubbles are being released and how the gunk is trapped outside of the skimmer instead of inside. Hope that in time it'll improve.
