I've always been running my skimmer dry and have been collecting the foam, but I recently switched to wet skimming. Is this color normal or is something wrong? It's a very faint green, clear color. I expected a much darker color. All the levels in the tank are zero so it seems to be working. Just wanted to see if I needed to go back to dry skim. Thanks!

I think I skim fairly wet and this is what I get.

 
Your skim is a little to wet imo. Nothing wrong with what you have just isn't pulling out all the funk.
