I purchased a new BK Supermarine 250 two weeks ago from my local fish store in Stockholm, Sweden. However, I have not been able to put it into real life operation in my tank yet, as my new and bigger sump has not yet been delivered.
Eager as I am to test the new skimmer, I have tested it using tap water in the bath tub, see pictures below. I note that the bubbles are not nearly as fine as the ones in your beautiful pictures earlier in the thread.
Are there significant differences in skimmer efficiency between running it in tap water as opposed to salt water, or should I be worried that my skimmer is not working properly?
