I recently got this protein skimmer. It is the coral life medium size. Got it set up, finally broken in and skimming great. It is set up as a hang on as I do not have a sump. The problem is the in take motor tube keep falling off, thus spewing water all over my living room. It has happened twice, always at night so I wake up to about 5 gallons of water on my floor. Any tips on how to stop the intake from falling off? I have not set it back up yet as my floors can’t take another dumping of water. I need a solution. Some ideas I had are, suction cupping the motor onto the glass or somehow finding an acrylic stand for the motor to rest on.
