Happy Thursday everyone.
I just received my Fluval PS2 in the mail and plugged it in. I've never used a protein skimmer before so I'm not exactly sure how it's supposed to look/sound/function.
My tank was pretty quiet with just the pump running which was nice, and now this protein skimmer is making a noticeable amount of noise. It's also not producing much bubbles in the column so I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to be? Are the bubbles supposed to come all the way up through the middle? I called Fluval and they just told me to wait 7 days until the skimmer is settled in.
The lady also said it needs to be submerged completely, but the back compartment where the skimmer sits in the EVO 13.5 doesn't allow it to be completely submerged so that's confusing as well.
Anyway, if anyone who's had more experience than I with this could offer some tips, I'd be grateful.
