I recently set up my first tank with a sump. I've had skimmers in the past, but all HOB.
for this setup (75 gallon) I bought a bubble magus curve 5. After doing some research I came to believe the best height was 8 inches. Even at the height the skimmer was overflowing.
I took an OLD bag of biological media I had and kind of shook the detritus off in the skimmer section. Immediately the skimmer stopped overflowing.
"broken in" in under an hour.
just some food for thought...
