Any idea why my skimmer is not working?

http://archive.reefcentral.com/forum...readid=1144275

I'm hoping this is a common problem/solution. I think I'm gonna take it out in a few minutes and re-check my assembly.

I thought I would see if any of you guys could possibly know the problem.

Thanks!

Brandon

I checked it out... I appreciate it. See my reply... I feel kinda goofy... lol. Lemme know if you think that "no salt" may be the problem.

Hey... at least I didn't add the rock without salt! lol

YES, It is the lack of salt!
Put salt in, get bad things out.
You need the binders salt provides, for lack of a better term, it's a wetting agent that helps the bubbles form.
