    I have a skimmer that works fine but its missing the little twist valve that goes on the end of the hose that leads to the powerhead to adjust the amount of air it intakes. i was wondering what I could use as a replacement and where I could get one?? PLZ HELP!:eek:

    I just used one of those extra air twisty deals from my maxijet 600 powerheads. I never use those airbubble attachments so luckly I had one laying around. you can probly just tie a loose knot for now until you pick one up. adjust the knot to increase or decrease air supply. good luck.
