Hello Everyone,
Still struggling with this hobby, but wanted to ask a quick question:
A while back I purchased a used Protein Skimmer (EuroReef). It's pretty big as I believe it was designed for 150-200 gallon tank size. Mine is only 60, but adequately fits inside the sump and seems to work really well. My only complaint is the same complaint from the very beggining... and that is the "perculating" / "gurgling" noise it makes. There is an air intake hose that sticks upward so the pump mixes air and water.
Is there any methods that can greatly reduce this noise? I'm not sure if it's a defect of the skimmer itself or if it's normal, but this noise can easily be heard 25-30 feet away and is pretty annoying.
Thanks in advance!
