Tunze 9004 help

[Deontae]

Hey guys I’ve had this skimmer for about a year and it’s always worked pretty good. I recently moved and ever since then the skimmer hasn’t really been working. It was making a lot of micro bubbles so today I took it apart and cleaned it. I found that the air hose was clogged and I’m guessing why there were micro bubbles, but now it doesn’t seem to be producing skimate. I can see the bubbles but there are barley going up the neck when the air is wide open
thanks for any help

Is the water at the water line in the back just above the top magnet?

I made a mark on the side that’s at the same height as the mark on the back and I set it to that

Do you have the adjustment on yours. I've had the dc and now the regular 9004 and the air line has a wheel on it to adjust it. Did you clean out the plastic piece on top of the pump that the air line connects to? It clogs also
