Yes
I was leaning this way also.
This is what I mean by fractionation is different for saltwater and freshwater. Saltwater bubble will divide, or fractionate, into much much smaller bubbles. Its much more difficult to produce smaller bubbles in freshwater than saltwater. Thats why the freshwater side of the hobby doesn't use skimmers.
Thank you. You are correct. Plopped it in saltwater and it works fine. Wow i feel stupid. I was leak testing with freshwater thats why the mix up happened i didnt even think to try the skimmer in saltwater
glad to hear its working correctly! Don't feel stupid, its a piece of knowledge that isn't really talked about or widely known. At least you can say you learned your one thing today!Thank you.

something. maybe inside the little teeth.?? I had an aquamax do that to me n it was little particles of carbon Took a toothbrush to it n it worked.I purchased a used Octo Classic 110-S skimmer and i took it apart and cleaned it all and re assembled, when i plug it in it makes huge bubbles and they dont rise up the body of the skimmer they just stay barely above the water line. Does anyone know whats wrong with it?
