ok yeah thats basically overdriving the skimmer.. reduce the flow into it.. it maybe reducing the amount of air into the skimmer..

yep reduced flow a bit and turned up the air bubbles are rising faster to the cup but still collecting thick thx Kevan .. my water line when the air is off is like 1/2 between the top of the box and bottom of the cylinder.

post a vid of your Ev240 in action Kevan i wanna see how it looks in the chambers make sure i got mine tweaked right :)

If you are new to the skimming world, open the cup and take a big wiff!!! Yummy.... LOL

I would get a hose hooked up to a collection cup before that cup gets too full...you do not want to just dump the crap right back into the system.
