I have an Icecap K1 Nano in a Nuvo 10 that is overflowing. What should I do to make it stop overflowing? Should I change the water level in the rear chamber or put the skimmer on a stand?

Oh yeah I epoxied some zoanthids to a rock recently. That’s probably why it’s overflowing. Also, if I keep dumping the contents in a collection basket wouldn’t that mess with the salinity?If you've made an addition to the tank whether its coral (the epoxy and superglue), new rocks, sprayed aerosol in the house or even stuck your hand in with something it doesn't like; its going to overflow. In my experience, get comfy on the floor and let it fill up, remove the cup and dump in a bucket. Eventually you will have removed everything that it's "rejected" from your tank and it'll be happy again.
Alternatively, increase airflow into the pump. You should have a valve on it.
