I changed to Tunze 9001 and never looked back. The Ghost never got dialed in.

I have absolutely no problem with me ghost skimmer. Works like a champ. Only time I ever see micro bubbles is when I feed. But it usally turn it off when I feed then turned on after 20 minutes. Also I have read that if your collection cup is not leveled it causes bubbles to release. But I don't have any problem with it.

Lol I have read may success stories and many horror. So not sure. Maybe they have a bad batch and they need to recall?

What is a ghost skimmer?

Skimmer made by innovative marine, for nuvo tanks.

Take the black air hose off from the bottom white fitting, then unscrew the adjustment knob to remove it. Blow air into the tube to see if it is plugged up up inside the skimmer. If it is, stick a pipe cleaner down into the air valve and from below to clean it out.
