:confused: My skimmer, the remora model, has been running so hard that the collection cup is filled and has to be emptied twice a day. This has been going on for nearly a month now. I have never seen this kind of output and have had this skimmer for about 3 1/2 years now. I have cleaned the pump and it really wasn't that dirty so I don't understand why this much output and it's mostly liquid. I have the collection cup nearly fully raised and have also tried to set it low so I'm confused here. Any ideas?????
 
fiz the return nozzle so you get slow filling... the build up of water is causing it to overfill the cup

What do mean by "FIZ"? Theres no adjustments on this skimmer. I've never had any thing like this happpen. Usually it never fills up but now I have to change it in the morning when I get up and when I get home at night.
