How to Get Started with the B170 Skimmer:
Setting up the B170 is straightforward. Hang the skimmer on your aquarium or place it in the sump, ensuring that both the pump and skimmer body are submerged in water. Maintain the water level at the neck of the skimmer and open the sewage outlet to prevent overflow during the initial break-in period. Allow the skimmer to run for a few days, adjusting the collection cup as skimmate begins to form. Once stable skimming is achieved, close the sewage outlet for optimal performance. Follow the provided guidelines for a smooth and efficient setup.
