i just got one to try on a nano tank, but after washing all the parts, there seem to be a small plate angled and the end, so wondering where it actually was suppose to be(hoping that i put it in the right place, but i cannot get the thing to bubble for the skimmimg part, when i turn the knob to open so to let the bubbling begin the water sucks out of the water intake tube, so has anyone beging thru the same problem and what did you do, to make it work. thanks.

Cover the air intake with your finger until all the air is sucked out of the water intake to prime it.
