Dice 12-gallon AIO issues

[glik]

Hi all,
I have a Fusion Pro 2 14 AIO Peninsula and have never had any issues, so this is weird to me. I have a Mini Mightyjet return pump (266 gph) in my Dice. I switched from a Sicce .5 I believe. Great flow in the tank now, however my sock chamber water level has remained high the entire time I have set this up. Have now gone through 3 pumps, hoping that was the issue. Its like the water is not flowing down into the sock, the water just circulates over top of it. I will say it is better now with the Mightyjet upgrade, before gunk would just sit on the surface and I can say 90% of it is now gone. So, it must be working I guess, just still odd to me. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! :)

I should also say, apparently the water is supposed to flow down into the sock, then goes through a little space at the bottom, then it's supposed to go up and over into the next chamber.... I'm not sure how to go about this now. If I am making a rookie mistake or just being dumb lol please explain.
