Reefer 900 DC Skimmer not producing many bubbles

[Addicted2Acro]

See video link below. Skimmer is only a couple months old. Was bought new with the entire tank. I have it running at 100% and its not producing much of anything. I just took it apart and cleaned and flushed it this morning and that did not help. I also disconnected it and re-connected it to app and that did not help either. Out of ideas.

Is the air intake clogged?

no

Also I can blow into the air intake fine. Its not blocked at all.

I broke down the whole skimmer and put it back together from scratch and saw no improvement in the amount of bubbles being produced. Is there anything else I am missing that could work?

its like the skimmer is running on 20% but its 100% and I cant turn it any higher.

Hey OP,

I’m having the same issue. Were you able to resolve the problem?

Red Sea sent me a new motor.

Awesome, thank you. I tried cleaning my SICCE, but it’s still doing the same thing. I will try to replace the pump.
