Just got my new skimmer...

[DragonFish]

Actually its my first skimmer and could use a little advice. Yes, first let me get it out in the open, its a Seaclone. No flames please its all that would fit my hood. anyway its been set up for a couple hours and there are TONS of tiny bubbles flooding my tank. Is that part of the break in of the skimmer or can I do something about it? Are the bubbles going to hurt my fish? the don't seem stressed but I just want to be cautious. Thanks all!

most skimmers will do this for the first few days its the norm. i would also do some serches . i have read that their are a lot of things that you can do to this skimmer that can really make it work well.

Actually, it seems that the makers of the Seaclone have read about the same mods you're talking about because when i got mine the inner tube was cut way down from the old model and there was a normal air valve. Its skimming quite nicely, I was just worried about the bubbles. Thanks for the info!
