My bubble problem got worse the other day after I cleaned the collection cup. I didn't pay any real attention to the height as I don't get a heck of a lot of anythhing out of the skimmer yet. The odd burst of foam and then nothing for a day or 2. Of course, I've only just put fish in it a couple of weeks ago so the load was pretty much nil.

I'll try lowering the cup height a bit and see how that goes.

The prefilter box isn't terrible expensive (~$35) but I'd like to try and make my own, for the heck of it.
