could be the water inlet of the skimmer. try washing the skimmer

mild acid bath or something. (=

[bwilly]

should be fine..

skimmate depends on a few things other than skimmer

* level of water

* PH

* water condition itself

did u check the valve.. is it open fully or half close??

I reckon is your PH got problem. or some stones stuck

in your skimmer, reducing the force of the spinning.
