seaclone 150 help

[devaji108]

Does any one out there in fish land use a seaclone 150 skimmer? The reason I ask is because I got one on ahum that one site LOL does the collection cup have the rest of the tubing for the tornado? Mine did not come with the cup. And to they produce bubbles or just the tornado? It came with a max jet 1200 (295 GPH ) any advice on putting this skimmer to work would be great.

yes i use one and it should look just like the pic. i hang the skimmer on back of tank with the pump in tank, on end of pump is a filter and an air line with a cap on the end to adjust the flow of air, i usualy turn my from completly closed to 1 1/4 turn open. for the first few days of set up you might get fine bubbles in tank tilll the skimmer is broke in. i love mine and i have to empty the cup every 2 days.

I don't think the skimmer will work properly without a collection cup. The skimmate will just overflow around the tube and spill out. Try the equpitment wanted boards

I had a seaclone but swithced to a CPR which I think is much better. You need the cup.
