V2 Skimmer - Bubble Stop Box

[mike_danger]

Hmmm,

my box is still overflowing, maybe my wool is too corse? Have any of you shortened the outlet hose, as mine goes halfway into the bubblestop which might be causing some of the problems.

I'll get some new batteries in my camera and get you some pics of our setup. Hopefully this will be more helpful as I'm rubbish at explaining stuff

Tbh my bubble box also over flows i really dont understand tbh. But as for the pipe issue i can say that when i take the pipe out the water pouring out is not alot tbh quite small and i dunno why the little top pipe is even there nor why it some how gets water out of it.

OOh OOH update!!!

My skimmer was throwing loads of bubbles into the water and I got inspired!

I'd just replaced my rowaphos and had used an old pair of tights to bag it .... so i cut off some leg and put it over the end of the pipe into the bubble stop and secured it with an elastic band

NO MORE BUBBLES...AT ALL
