Hi I am new to this forum , I have just purchased a BM curve A5 dc skimmer which I thought would be perfect for my E/Aqua 900s which has now been running just over 6 months, the tank has settled down nice.
When I first added the skimmer it would not skim for more than 2hrs at a time without shutting down and the green light on the power supply was flashing, so I stripped it down cleaned it and put it back in the sump which it immediately overflowed the collection cup with foam.
It now runs continuous but I cannot put the collection cup on as it forces the lid off even at the lowest setting, the skimmer is at the right depth of 20cm, I haven’t used no treatments, I am not dosing, I don’t overfeed and all my parameters are normal
Anyone got any ideas , I have a video I can send but it’s too large to post
Thanks for any help
