Sounds like you need to rig up a float valve or solenoid and float switch to shut it off.

Top hat Tuesday (slightly smooshed)

Unsure of why it’s doing this as it didn’t use too. Maybe a light issue? @Eagle_Steve

My mini maxis do that for a few days if they are about to spawn. You may end up with some free coral food before it is over with. They typically spawn at night.

Hmmm. May not open. If not, just fill with hydrogen peroxide and let sit for a bit. Then rinse with hot water and repeat if needed. It should most of the crud out. If that doesn’t work, soak in some vinegar for a few hours and then rinse well.
