Hello Co2Art...

Recently purchased a lilly pipe skimmer. Cannot get the skimmer part to work properly. It keeps floating too high on the water surface and will not skim the water???

Thanks for reply Hogan...

I had it so that the float part was extending from the glass tubing by only 1 inch. Still the float would not sit in a position to skim

remove some of the air trapped under the floating skimmer. Also try adjusting the bottom pole if you have not done so.
 
Hello,

Thank you very much to all of you for great suggestions. Yes I can confirm that all above is very good solutions and probably you will need to tap the top part of the skimmer to remove some trapped air from it or try to adjust the bottom part of the skimmer.
