I was having hard time getting my skimmer working well and producing much foam. I have seen numerous other members having the same problem. So I figured - it was not my fault, but the skimmer's. OK, I was wrong...

Besides the air intake valve there is also a "wall" you can raise inside the skimmer to control the water level. I had it all on the min. Once I raised it about 50%, I got more foam than I need. I can now give foam away ...:bounce1:
