Hello all happy Saturday and a happy fathers day coming up to all the dads.

I was wondering what the correct approach is.

Is the water level in skimmer chamber supposed to be below the baffle right before the return chamber? See pic attached. Should the water be below the yellow baffle before the foam sponge?

Thank you!

Thank you!
Just to note the return chamber is the furthest left chamber .
 
It looks correct, as far as I can tell.
Great thanks. This is a broken in skimmer (Dalua Great White -7) already and for some reason it has started to produce microbubbles from the gate valve area that are reaching my display.

I did take it out to fix the rubber ring near the wheel, but nothing else. And since it has produced lots of fine microbubbles.

Should I add poly filter to the baffle?

Will it settle down in a few days? That’s what Dalua told me when I reached out to them.
