i have build my skimmer

qxcontinuum

Reefing newb
Its cost was overall 60$ it's including a 1200 gph pump and air pump.
The collection cup was used from another skimmer and has about 0.5 litters.
Now my question is, how do you know when a skimmer is performant?
It is about the amount of residual foam it collects?
My skimmer right now collects about 1 litter/24 hours / 90 galons tank
Is this god or not?

Here is the foam coming up in the collection cup. It is full of algae :-(

YOu sir are a steely eyed missle man!! I love it!!! I think one liter is a bit much, but the tank may really need skimming. Good luck!
