hI ALL,

CAN SOME PLS HELP ME I AM NEW TO THE GAME ANY WAY HAVE A RED SEA PRISM SKIMMER, EXCACTLY WHAT THE HECK AM I LOOKING FOR TO KNOW IF IT IS WORKING CORRECTLY. SHOULD THE BUBBLES/FOAM COLLECT ONLY IN THE CUP AND LEAVE BEHIND A RESIDUE OR SHOULD THE BUBBLES BE GENTLY FALLING OUT OF THE TOP OF THE CUP AND LEAVING WATER IN THE RESERVOIR,

See my other post, but just let the foam barely into the collection cup. The foam will carry waste into the cup.

I have sm skimmer. Just a heads up... when dumping cup make sure to use water around the top seal just like directions say... if you don't have that seal in place perfectly the darn thing will leak water down the back!
yes, just a little foam coming out the top and mine collects skimmate pretty good.
