Both my Life Reef Skimmers keep clogging from this thick foam. I’ve cleaned the pumps, set the speeds up, adjusted the control valve. Cleaned the Ventura. I used to be able to go a week to 10 days without cleaning. Now it can be every day. Haven’t changed anything, but went with BRS Dosing. Even tried backing of on ReefRoids, and it’s still not working. Perplexed since this is on two different Aquariums.

Looks like normal skim to me. What do you mean by clogging?
