Hello All,

Decided to pull the trigger and purchase this Skimmer for my year in a half Nuvo 20. Thought it couldn’t hurt to get lower Phosphates then what I currently sit at which is .15.

it’s been great along with quiet but having an issue with micro bubbles getting into the tank. Will this eventually go away with time? Anyone else have this issue. It has been in my tank since Weds (June 24th). It’s not bad but my corals are not happy as they are not fully opening.

Any insight would be great!

It's normal for a lot of new skimmers.

Give it time to build up a slime coating inside your skimmer's body.

sounds good! Will do. Fish will be cool? Seems like they are okay with the micro bubbles. Hopefully it doesn’t take longer than a week to two
