+2

I too have noticed that the recommended water levels (for the 4 skimmers that I've owned) have been crap. I've always had to effectively run them at a lower water level (or raising skimmer).

Whoa.. I don't know about your specific skimmer, but 14" seems very deep to me. My last two skimmers have sat in about 6-8 inches of water. My newest skimmer I had at about 8 inches but then raised...

I would just let it overflow for a few more days as intarsiabox suggested. I don't know what it is but clearly some reaction has occurred in your tank. Another suggestion is to simply raise your...
