Hi Rocks,

Pretty sure it doesn't minimised the micro bubbles. I'm relying on the filters marked green to eliminate micro bubles.

Also thinking of extending the skimmer return pipe all the way so I can remove the ugly looking cloth marked red from the sump. I'm using it to prevent splashing.

Anyone out there can advice how to tune the beckett skimmer? I've been running it since last night but still no tick form when i check it this morning. What's wrong??

Thanks for your reply.. so i guess the pipe is merely for moving the outflow of the skimmer to another compartment.

As for your skimmer, your air intake seems little.. did you open the air value?

me no expert in beckett... :D

Wow another macro photographer

If your DC allows, try lowering depth of field and zooming in more :lol:
