Euro Reef - Noisy Venturi

fahadahmed · 12/18/2007, 11:26 AM

After reading and researching for skimmers on RC I have finally decided to go with Euro-Reef 135. Honestly, this is the best built and desinged skimmer I have seen and this is my third skimmer.

The only problem I am having is that the little tube that goes to the venturi is noisy as hell. It sounds like gargaling and that is very annoying. Do you guys / gals have any idea on how to mitigate the noise?

Thanks.
