I bought an ETSS 800 "Gemini" for $250.00 with no instructions and after looking around at other skimmers I was wondering if i'm running the water level to high in it??

That's about where I run my 800 clone. You need to decide how you want your foam - dry, or wet. It also depends on how much air you let in.. If it's too dry (low) you'll just get really dirty walls you'll have to clean out vs. it actually coming OUT of the skimmer.

Good luck!

PS: You might want to eventually modify it to use two becket injectors (or one) instead of the two downdrafts with bioballs.

Thanks for the info, will be trying the beckett mod at a later date.
