I have a Reef Octopus HOB Skimmer. It has worked great for me for years and recently it started making a gargling sound at the air inlet hose. It has never done this before and always worked fine. What causes this to happen and how can I fix it? The sound is very annoying.
Thanks

Is the sound coming from the air hose itself? Have you ever cleaned the venturi before? Sometimes over time they'll get clogged up with gunk/calcium deposits and stop breathing right.

mine did the same thing. I put one of those filters for a aqualifter pump on the air line and it acted like a muffler and was quiet again.
