I have been running my CSS65 on my 20L for weeks, and its been pulling nasty brown thick skimmate. set on the wetter side of skimming.
the other day I turned off the skimmer, let it sit for 24hrs(while doing some work on the tank) and then plugged it back in and the collection cup just fills up with water/foam in a minute. Its not getting enough air. even set of full dry skim, cleaned pump/air tube/ venturi tube with vinigar and no results. it just fills with water...
whats wrong? i'm stuck...how does a skimmer go from working wonderfully one day to broken the next?
