So today the venturi on my Rio 800 clogged and I had to take the Excalibur skimmer off the tank to clean the venturi lines. Cleaned out the collection cup too, and stuck the skimmer back on the tank with a properly working venturi.
Now that that is all cleaned up, neither skimmer is producing any skimmate since I put the Remora on the tank. So, they are both off to a fresh start:
I fed the fish twice today too. Now it will be a real showdown to see which skimmer produces more skimmate. Or any skimmate at this point... I am sure it will be fine in a few days but this process has been frustrating, particularly since it happened right after I got my fish and so many other people with Remoras get skimmate right away.
I am not down with getting the entire skimmer replaced, or even the collection up, until I at least see this one start working.
