It's been set up and running since Friday night. AMAZED by the silence. A bit confused by the instructions though. It says to open control to 100 and let run. Well if I do that it just fills the skimmer cup. Completely possible I am missing something. Any advice?

Thanks,
Woody.

I would ignore that, my experience is this skimmer needs a very low setting. Typically below 50%. My assumption is that this recommendation is based on break in in a brand new and sterile tank.

AquaCave stocks them. They are a separate accessory.
