What's start up skin? Don't really understand the question =)..

If that is the Curve 5, you want the line to be slightly above the BM sticker on the collection cup. for dry skimming and about an inch below the rim of the cup for wet skimming.

Remember, each tank is different according to bio load, but now you have a place to start.
Adjust to your liking afterwards. Let it run for awhile to break in too.

Thanks guys, I just let it start around the bottom off cup. Then adjusted a couple of hours later. It's now running perfect and it's a 7 curve, thanks a lot again.

I would keep it where it was, as the skimmer starts to break in it well start to overflow so having it lower will lessen that chance.
