Your skimmer require a 2000l/hr pump cos its a venturi skimmer.

To get a darker and dryer skimmate, adjust the red knob to control ur water level at a lower volume.........it will take 12-24hrs to even see anything in your collection cup, so be patience or you can start feeding slightly heavier for the day before you start your skimmer.
