letting it grow
depending on your nutrient load ,the skimmer will skim at that point easily,when its broken in.
Once my tank had cycled and the nutrients dropped i had to raise my riser past the cup.
You can do this easily by just loosening the wing nut and leaning the riser out a little and slide it past the cup.
thje top of my t now sits 1/4 inch above the upper edge of the white base of the cup.
My water level is around 1/2 inch above the base of the cone.
But the skimmer just won't skim whatever you do until its ready
