Does anyone have a Bubble Magus Curve 5 skimmer? Ours is not foaming at all. It raises the water level but has no foam coming out at all. I have tried cleaning it in vinegar and moving it to every setting but no luck. Any ideas?

Is the venturi pulling in air?  It may not be getting any air

It's where the air tubing connects to the front if the pump. It gets plugged with salt and other minerals over time. Take the air tubing off and poke a tooth pick in the hole to clean it out. Then soak it in vinegar.
