any one can take off detachable components to clean them. The poorly designed chamber between where the impeller fires the bubbles through the short tube and the perforated plastic plate is a nightmare to clean thoroughly. Maybe Mr. KYAquaria can fill me in on what i'm missing as the only way I can effectively clean that area is to completely disassemble the unit and soak the outer housing in a 5 gallon pail of vinegar. (Note to engineers- Why wouldn't you have designed the perforated plate to be removable?) Also the poorly designed sliding collection and output cups get loose after about a year and just fall off into the tank.
I'm sure this clip would be very helpful, well if there was someone explain what is going on, how to bleed the skimmer. These clip with no dialogue are rubbish.
How do you setup the degreaser cup and also the defoamer cup? BTW, I need new black foams too

Product looks good but this video lacks clear footage of the entire thing operating. Closeups may look flashy but its not very informational..
How do you get the impeller out of the pump without snapping the cheap plastic impeller shaft? Of course you didn't show that.
He didn't show anything people want answers to. A ten year old probably showed him what to post.
Would the skimmer still work if the water level was a bit lower? Like maybe only halfway up the intake tube?
have you use these hang on skimmer with a co2 scrubber
