i just recieved my Octopus Needlewheel 200 skimmer. question..........can my skimmer be submerged in 15 inches of water or should i use something under it to raise it? if so, how deep should the water level be on the skimmer?

It looks like the same design as ASM skimmer. Plug it in and set the riser tube to appropriate / desired foam results. You don't want the riser tube submerge.

The ASMs and Octopuses do best with a water level of 9". there is some play but I would either lower your 15" level or raise the skimmer
