NOOOO!!! Don't give up!
The kink in the tubing will make it harder for the skimmer to get air.
From picture two it looks like you have a pretty good kink in the airline tubing right at the pump.
Your tank is an awesome show. I wish I could fit that much activity in mine. Definitely plenty of sand for that little guy.
Do you really think those tanks need cleaning? From the looks of them when I saw them they were pretty spotless. Any algae should be dead from when...
I like the vinegar option if you still have the test water in the system. Bleach would be a little worrisome because you would have to get all the...
The should make actinics for it. What fixture is it?
Interesting. Have you tried shutting off the pump and turning it back on? Mine did some kinda odd things like that a few times. It was almost like...
Interesting thread. Now I have a couple of questions for the permitted people. Why do you carry? If you were at the beach would you really...
Sadly I haven't. Maybe when I set up my next tank I'll have to order some.

A tank can definitely last without the flow from a return running. The things I worry about are that I don't have a heater in my DT and my skimmer is...
Yep, standard Wal-Mart super glue gel works. I bet I have a couple pounds of the stuff in my system with no ill effects.
I agree, with a tank that large, your livestock is going to be a big investment. Having two pumps will be cheap insurance against one possible tank...
Time will definitely help.
Wow you're moving along fast. Looks great. Thanks for trying out that bio-cube skimmer. I was considering one but hadn't heard much about them. After...
