I installed my BH-2000 a week ago, got it primed and running. I had some of the same issues as others have posted as it started running, collection cup filled up twice very quickly. I had to go out of town for a few days and worried about it overflowing and my wife panicking about what to do. So, I unplugged the pump and let it sit until I returned home. For various reasons I was not able to start the skimmer back up until last night.
I had micro bubbles galore in the tank. After reading posts by others I decided to let everything ride overnight. I woke a couple of times throughout the night and checked to make sure everything was still going well. By the time I got up for work this morning the micro bubbles had dissipated. I noticed a little light colored skimmate in the collection cup. I opened up the air bleed valve a little more. I am cycling the tank getting ready for some livestock, so there is very little load now, but the film that was noticeable on the top of the water is now gone. I will post more results as I go. So far I am extremely happy with this skimmer recommended by my LFS.
