asm skimmer

[hqgc]

I've had my G2 for about three months now. It is in about 8 inches of water and seems to be working fine. I have mine set so the water level is about a third of the way up into the collection cup. The adjustable part you are talking about is just the elbow so you can move your pump where you want.
I have been trying to do the gate valve mod but have had no luck finding a gate valve (Edmonton).
There is an excellent asm skimmer faq of RC but I can't seem to find the link.....

If I remove the cup then put it back on, the bubbles are maybe a 1"+ from the top, after a bit, they'll rise higher. Though a little foam will overflow into the cup, seems skimmate is produced by bubbles hitting the lid, breaking and falling into the cup.

The skimmate will be liquid with solids suspended, but don't expect a syrup or tar. From mine the colour varies but it's like a dark green to brown really, really cloudy soup.

I take mine out and give the whole thing a good cleaning every few months. For the first few days after, the skimmate will be lighter and clearer before settling in.

As for adjustment, on the G3 there's none other than the riser.

The picture shows two parts, the venturi and pump impeller cover (which you rotate to remove).

I thought it did something else other than getteing access to the impeller/
