Problem:

Small air bubbles returning to the tank

No waste collecting in collection cup.

The air pump is producing little or no

bubbles.

Before calling CPR's Technical Support, please take some time to look over this trouble

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Cause and Solution:

The surface tension of the water has been increased by added supplements, medications,

or conditioners. Disable the protein skimmer by submerging the airline into the water

or shutting off the air pump for 24 hours. Many products contain chemicals which will

still be present in the aquarium after 24 hours. Run the protein skimmer as normal to

remove compounds which may be affecting surface tension.

The salinity is too high. Lower the salinity to 1.023.

Adjust the red flow controller on the feed pump. Reducing the flow will slow the flow

rate through the skimmer, reducing the draft of bubbles into the tank.

The aquarium has just been cleaned or water has been changed. Synthetic salt mixes

often contain conditioners which increase the surface tension of the water. Bubbles

should disappear within 48 hours.

New substrate has recently been added. The addition of new substrate and the silicates

(as a result) can increase bubble production and decrease bubble size. Perform respon-

sibly aggressive water changes to help the system process through this transition.

The air pump outlet and its airline may be dirty. Clean the whole unit every two weeks

for optimal performance.

The collection cup is not low enough. See instructions for the correct height of the

collection cup.

The biological load may not be sufficient to generate waste. On a new tank or a tank

with supplemental filtration it may take over a week to generate waste foam.

The airline or the air pump outlet may be blocked. Detritus, calcium and salt will build

up in these parts over time. Clean these parts every two to three weeks with warm tap

water.

The air diffusers have become clogged with organic material and the flow rate and the

air output rates are reduced. Clean the air diffusers with water and replace, if necessary.
