ASM skimmer

[redboxer13]

Question for everyone,

I had someone tell me that all ASM skimmers leak a little bit.
IS there any truth to this?
Thanks

I am not sure, they are meant to run inside the sump, and not external. So there might be a little leaking but is shouldn't matter.

My ASM G3 leaks where the collection cup attaches to the body. Not a big deal though.

 

[disbjohn]

yes they do leak. they are meant for in sump use only.

Yep, another leaker here. Lots of salt creep.

ok, just wasn't sure that this was the case for all of them.
I take it the amount is small right??? It leaks at the neck where it meets the collection cup???
