good question! :lol:
For me it meant simply getting my skimmer to work properly where I was getting real skimmate (not tinted water), not having any overflows, etc., and consistency in skimmate production. In order to achieve this, I had to mess around with the bubble breaking level via adjusting the gate valve on the intake, and eventually I added an airvalve to restrict the air flow a bit. This combination finally worked for me after a long period of trial and error.
