Skimmer problem

[Adam29c]

The pump pumps water but there are no bubbles in the water. It has worked fine for 7 months.

Any help for this newbie?

Thanks in advance!

Take the air line off and all things going to it and from it and make sure it's clear .. after a while you'll get dust and salt and gunk in it.

or turkey baste some water in the air tube thats most of the air bubble issues

+1 with mytee check your air line.

any other suggestions, the air line is clean

Plug it in and try blowing thru the airline, sometimes water backs up the tube and prevents it from drawing air...
