Protein Skimmer Assembly
(Figure C1)
1. Insert airline tubing into air pump using
end that has just 6" before the inline
air flow valve.
2. Remove reaction chamber top from
reaction chamber and insert the other
end of the airline tubing through the hole
at the bottom of the reaction chamber.
3. Attach the airstone to the end of the
airline tubing and pull it back through
until the airstone is at the bottom
of the reaction chamber.
4. Reassemble all parts of the protein
skimmer, except for the collection cup.
Protein Skimmer Placement
(Figure C2)
1. Using hanging clip on reaction chamber
top, hang protein skimmer on the wall
between chambers 1 and 2.
NOTE:
if
skimmer is in correct position, the right
filtration cover will fit properly.
Collection Cup Assembly
(Figure C3)
1. Place collection cup on top of reaction
chamber. Pull airline tubing through the hole
on the back of the right filtration cover,
making certain that airflow is not restricted
when the right filtration cover is on.
Protein Skimmer Startup
1. Once water has been added (page 23),
plug in pump. Adjust airflow adjustment
nozzle so that bubbles stay just above
the reaction chamber.
2. When collection cup fills, remove
and dispose of waste material by rinsing
with warm water.
