My skimmer keeps randomly overflowing. I can't pin down the reason. I know some corals can release toxins, can that make a skimmer overflow?

Is it a newer set up. What kind of skimmer? Sometimes they just need to be broken in and dialed in.

Softies that get bumped while working in the tank have made my skimmer go nuts.
