I had previously a RE alpha 200, those skimmers are great but a bit finicky to deal with, but when you find the sweet spot just don't touch it.. sometime when I was feeding the fishes, or corals or just put my hand in the sump the skimmer was not skimming for a few minutes and back to normal after a bit

There are a few things I would check make sure all your connections are ok your air and suction also that your pump is working properly is it clean and even power draw how much stuff do you have plugged into the same receptacle maybe it's not getting enough power when something else turns on
Happy hunting
