Talon Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 Plug it in and run it! You'll know real quick what is missing or broken [emoji6]I did plug it in and run it I think it's missing a bubble plate or something I get one line of bubbles that travel to the top and start to collect in the neck I don't think it's right I just put it in a 10gl I had with some hose water to test it don't know if that's a good enough test though idk if salt makes a difference in how thay are supposed to workSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Z Reef Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Looks like an eBay special from China that they rate for 100 gals LOL Try adding some vinegar to the water when you test and see if you get some bubbles going on. On a 10 gallon tank, most people don't run skimmers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoDoze Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Bubbles will be created but won't accumulate to foam in only fresh water. A single steam on bubbles sounds like the pin wheel is broken our missing. It's what will agitate the water to create lots of bubbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
