Default Odyssea protein skimmer
Hey what's up? I have the odyssea protein skimmer and I'm not getting that foamy skimmate. It has been running for only about 2 days and I have been messing aroudn with the adjustment valve. Everything appears to be working. I see microbubbles in the reaction chamber. Does this take a couple of weeks to start foaming? I would appreciate any help or advice.

Did you guys hook up the air line to one of the ports in the intake grate? I have tried it on those and on the other fitting located on the impeller housing. Doesn't seem to make much difference, its only been 24 hours though. Please post if yours starts making real foam and if you did something different to make that happen Thanx.
