I would like to hear how much air you have going threw your needle wheel skimmers, if you have an air flow meter to measure it, and what size skimmer you have.
Thanks

Mine (H&S) does about 900 L/hour. Check out this thread I posted a few days ago.

Thanks dj
Do you find you get your best skimming with the most air flow?
I can get my skimmer up to about 900 L/hour too, but it does not build up any foam at that level, I have it set at 500 L/hour now and have great foam head and skimming.
