This happen to me, I found that the foam insert to protect stuff to get sucked in pump was full of gunk. When I took it off, the skimmer started to work nicely again.

I am currently at school but when i get home i will check about the foam, I know it is not leaking...I am using a Maxi-Jet 1200 as the pump, I bought it used and the pump that was on it the wires were frayed so i couldnt use it so i just hooked up an extra Maxi-Jet I had. It had worked for a while then now it is not a constant stream. Which would lead me to think that the water pressure isnt sufficient enough.

well, the pro needs a stronger pump than a MJ 1200, so that is most likely your problem.

The Remora Pro needs a Mag 3 to drive it. The basic Remora uses the Maxi jet 1200. Regard Ken
