Solution(s) to a very noisy (new) skimmer pump?

Hey All,

Just cycling my 300L marine tank and have my skimmer in my sump. :happy2:

I noticed after a few hours of operation that the skimmer pump became really noisy. It sounded like there was something vibrating inside it.

I turned it off and took the bits i could apart, cleaned, tightened and reassembled.

Worked good for about 30 mins then went noisy again.

Skimmer is a new Reef Octopus NW150. Been running for about 6-8 hours in total so far.

Cheers

Dave
