    I have been having some skimmer problems and the manufacture would like some air draw numbers to help in diagnosing the skimmer. I would like to know if there might be somebody in the albuquerque nm area that might have 1 that I could borrow. We do not have a local reef club so 3 reef is my only method of asking. I really do not want to purchase 1 unless I really have too.

    What brand of skimmer is asking for air draw readings?

    SWC is asking for them to see if there is possibly a pump problem.

    You can find them on e-bay if you can borrow one.Get a Dwyer RMB-52d A RMA will work.... it's smaller but more restrictive. The 52 is the range and the Dis the scale. Does not have to be a D... could just be a 52. Don't get hung up on LPM or SCFH, both can easily be converted to what SWC wants. It is a good thing to have. Especially if you have Sicce pumps.
