protein skimmer

I just got a new skimmer and it keeps filling up with water extremely fast. How do I fix this?

Got this magtool skimmer off eBay that was listed as Brand New, fresh in the box, cool specs, the whole deal... Paid 73.27 total (I know this wasn't a good idea to begin with, I don't even remember putting a bid in). Look at the pictures, they're self explanatory. Contacted the seller and was...

I’ll drop a picture of my protein skimmer. I have a Reef Octo 110s and it keeps doing this. I have it on air level #3. It was fine when I first got it, but it keeps doing this now. I haven’t added anything to the tank to make it go crazy like this. It’s relatively new, maybe 2 weeks? Please help!

I have been going through some trouble lately with my Red Sea 300 skimmer. I can't figure out why there is an uneven height of bubbles being produced between the divider of the skimmer neck. In the photo you can see the foam on the left side is about an inch higher than the right. Anyone run...

I recently picked up an Aquaforest OceanGuard 790 from another reefer. (5’x2’x2’) As I’m planning this build, I can’t decide what protein skimmer to purchase. I had planned on buying a Reef Octopus Classic 202-S. However, the skimmer section of the AF sump is not large enough for it. I am now...

I am new to keeping a salt tank so I am still learning the terms for most of the supplies needed to help my tank thrive. Currently I do not have a protein skimmer and am looking to purchase one from reef octopus as it seems to harbor the best reviews online. I am stuck between the 110EXT 4"...

I have a bubble magus qq1 that’s brand new. I’m aware it needs to break in but when I run it, there’s way too many bubbles. They go to the top of the cup and fill it up and also leak out a ton of micro bubbles. Am I doing something wrong with the priming? I thought when it breaks in there is...

Hey Guys so I work in the utility industry and as you can imagine during the winter months everything falls apart quick and Im at work for 1 to 2 months straight. So I have to call my wife to deal with everything. So Im on a mission to automate pretty much everything and Im using Hydros to do...

Whatsup fellas , I just bought a bubble Maggus qq3 for my aqueon 29 standard tank. I know this is commonly discussed but I feel like my problem is different. When I turn it on I held the air valve for 60 seconds as instructed but then when I let it go the bubbles go all the way to the top...

I upgraded to the Fusion Pro 2 AIO 50 Lagoon last year for my mixed reef. Sorry for the long post/rant but I need help! Main question at bottom. I was running my old nano skimmer (unsure of the model, I originally bought it in 2015) in it even though it was way too small for the tank, it was...
