I have a 90 gallon Pro Star AIO that we filled up for the first time earlier this week. We cannot get the water level in the filter sock chamber to stay at a consistent level. We've tried dialing up/down the water flow as well as manipulating the level of the return pump and the water is still fluctuating. The salinity of the tank is not changing. Once the water level starts to change the noise in the tank becomes very loud. In all honesty the noise is the main issue. If the water level in the filter chamber is at a specific level it makes no noise at all, however, we can't get the water to stay at that level. Does anybody have any suggestions?
 
As the sock gets dirty it will slow the flow which will lower the lvl of water in the back chambers, the display water lvl will go up.

We ran the socks for a day or two together and yesterday we took one out and we are still having the same issue. Right now we are cycling. And the filters were not dirty.. they are new.

Can’t see what else it can be, for the back chambers to lower your slow is either being slowed down by socks or floss etc you are not topping up with ro water or you have a leak or your return pump has be charged speed, which would affect the flow, in crease the return you’ll need to add a little more water, reduce it and you will have too much water.
