euroreef skimmer

[rexxx]

i recently purchased the euroreef skimmer (its the one rated for a 75 gal) but my skimmer has been running for about 3 months and its making a ton of bubbles. Also the flow out of the riser pipen seems to have gotten greater than when it was first running. It doesnt really pull anything out of the tank maybe 1/4 of an inch every week any suggestiuons?

i would first ask, how high do you have the riser pipe set?
i just purchased the 90g economy model and it took quite awhile to break it in.
i noticed there was a lubricant used on the riser pipe and wonder if it might impede foam fractionation.

all is well now.
