Hi guys, I recently purchased an asm g4 skimmer equipped with a sicce pump. The skimmer works fine I just can’t get it to skim on the drier side without having it sit in shallow water (maybe 4 inches of water). My tank has 0 nitrates as it is currently finishing up a fallow period as I’m moving to a strict qt process. I guess my questions are:
Is it normal for the skimmer to be working best in really shallow water?
Could it be the skimmer just hasn’t “broken in” yet?
Is there possibly nothing for my skimmer to catch?
My tank is 180 gallons and I plan on having a fairly heavy stocking so I went with the g4 model, any idea on why it’s skimming on the wetter side? And yes it’s set to the driest skim possible via the stand pipe
