    Added carbon and GFO, now skimmer pulsing

    Right, that does make sense. But, why does lowering my water level make the Venturi pull air consistently? My other question is why is there a good...

    Added carbon and GFO, now skimmer pulsing

    Skimmate gone...

    I checked my salinity with my new fan dangled refractometer from BRS and it's showing my specific gravity to be 1.024, a little low. This may be one...

    Skimmate gone...

    That was my first thought, I checked the air line, the Venturi intake, etc... Everything was shipshape. No salt buildup to my surprise, but I cleaned...
