New skimmer question

[Mike1995]

So I got a bubble Magnus curve 5. I set it up yesterday, and literally within 5 minutes it was pulling skim stuff out and I saw it in the cup. Then tonight, I came home and the cup was filled about half way with skim mate . It smelled terrible. But, now the foamy bubbles in the skimmer body are only going to about the top before it reaches the cup. It isn't skimming anything .is it because theres nothing else to skim right now or did I set it up wrong?

Sounds like you got it exactly right. If there isn't much to skim, things slow down. All good. Skimming is like that sometimes.
