Skimmer Nog color!

[lastlight]

That skimmer skims really wet/diluted. I have the same issue. I've never got mine to skim drier/darker.

I'm guessing this equals a less efficient job when it's only green?....I guess better than nothing but a bit pricey for a half arse job...

should shoot for a black color and thick.

How do I do that, less air?

adjust the height of the skimmer in relation to your water level. Bring it up a little higher probably a few centimeters. just play around with the height of your skimmer for a few days till you get your desired output.

Moved up about 1/2" Not perfectly level now because of thick trim on the tank but will see what happens, thanks.

Not really less efficient. It's just pulling more water along with the skimmate.
