i got air open all the way on mine and the water flow open little better than half way just enough for foam to come out slowly so it don't bubble up fast and over flow the skimmer. open air all the way up and slowly move water adjustor a little and keep moving it every couple of hours until it foams good. If water flows to fast than you get lots of bubble in tank.

I have one on my Qt tank and all I do is adjust the knob a little and the bubbles go away after about a week or so..
