Good afternoon to all my fellow reefers.
I've looked through the threads and found minimal info on how to properly set up the skimmer. I've had this skimmer in my sump for about a month and to this day I've not had any form of proper skimming from the skimmer. I've tried to turn up/down the bubbles but it makes no difference. I've lowered and raised the cup all I'm able to do is pull water from the sump. Is there someone that can guide me.

Tank Info
7months old
35gallon
2 Clowns
1 6line
SPS and Softies

Corals are doing fine but since I've changed out my broken skimmer there has been a lot of algae growth. I contributed this to poor skimming.
Thanks in advance for the help.
