Another skimmer question

Can't you just put a 90 on the gate valve, and then enough pipe to extend it below the water surface. If there is still too many bubbles a sock will cure that.

It might be an odd size PVC pipe like it is on mine. Normal PVC pipe that is available to us will not fit. I was thinking that the vent kit might work, I see it some time ago & was going to suggest it.

I did run to Rona to grab more plumbing parts tonight, I have an elbow and left over pipe from plumbing the tank, just need connectors.
