    Default One of the Goodies

    Okay here's a Skimmer that I got in the bunch of goodies that I got for $20.00. I think I can use it in the reef somehow until I can get Angie to come over and help me look at some of the other items. I can use the pump that came with the Fision Nano Skimmer but I need to know how to get rid of the micro bubbles before they exit the system. If you look at the skimmer at the top there are the return holes. One all the way at the top and two at the base of the cone. Now how can I get rid of the bubbles and use this effectively. There is one more hole that I can plug because it looks like it's for an air line but becuase the pump is also an air pump I don't think I need it.

    24g Aquapod Reef tank (Probably going to be sold)
    55g Reef :D

    Looks like a prime canidate for an airstone hack and a low volume pump. You won't believe the gunk my little one produces!
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    I'm not getting the answer I need. It'll work with my small pump that came with the nano skimmer. When I hooked up the skimmer pump it it just blows the bubbles out of the three holes in the two closer pics. It's causing too many bubbles in the tank. How can I keep that from happening. Right now, becuase the nano skimmer isn't keeping up, I've put the much larger skimmer that came in the bunch of things on the tank. It's working tremendously. But the question is, how can I get rid of the bubbles or plug the holes.
