sapphire skimmer problem
I finally got water my 34 gal solana. When I pug in the sapphire skimmer that was made for this tank, it bubbles up and over flows lifting the collection cup lid up. Is this just because it is new and needs to break in or is there another problem. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

What water conditioner(if any) are you using?

RO/DI water, I let salt mix in mixing container for 24 hrs. filled up tank with new saltwater,(took 2 days to get enough mixed water to fill tank) plugged in and had this problem right away. Tank have been running for 3 hrs now and not change.

I thought it might have been a conditioner you may have been using. I had the same problem with my skimmer when I started up my first salt tank.
I think you'll just need to keep playing with it and tweaking the adjustment.
