I have 4 kg of live rock and the water is cycled for almost a month. Now I added a Weipro venturi skimmer, 2012 hang on type. I have 6 damsels and a little crab.

My questions, I am getting alot of bubbles from the skimmer but no foam yet
. There is a water line mark on they cylinder, do I adjust to that line or above? How soon should I be seeing foams?

With this set up, what other advice can you offer?

Thank you
