Weipro 2011 With Weipro 3000 Submerge Pump For 2ft

[maxifire]

Hi,

My Weipro's been running for the past 4 days and it's been either overskimming (overflowing my cup) or not skimming properly when I cover a little bit of the air hole.

I've tried adjusting the flow valve of the skimmer to the lowest and it still overflows when I don't cover the air valve. Now I'm really suspecting that my PH could be too strong for the skimmer.

Anyone managed to get the 2011 with 3000 submerge pump running on a 2ft tank?

Please share with me your opinions.

hi there,

i have the same set up as you...2011 skimmer with 3000 pump

i do not cover the air hole

my pump is placed outside the tank(inside tank, temp rises by 1 degree and is noisy)

i do not have any problems with skimmin good skimmate.

the skimmer shouls take about 2 weeks to kick in properly.

Would like to check with you something.

Do you experience the same problem which I'm experiencing now during your skimmer kick-in period?

overflowing in the cup has never been a problem for me at any stage...

just simply adjust the valve to get the height you want

the 3000 pump can be used outside the tank...unless Henry from ML bluff me which I don't think so...
