Help! My Vertex Skimmer is actin crazy!

Hmmm, interesting. Have you cleaned the pump and air hose lately? I took mine apart after it acted up the last time, cleaned everything in a vinegar soak, run the skimmer in the bath tub in vinegar water for a few hours and put it back in the sump and it seemed to solve the problem. I haven't had an outbreak since.
