[brettestbrett]

My skimmer is Over reacting after cleaning. I can’t even put the collection cup on due to the massive amount of water over flowing. Any help would be much appreciated.nyos 220 I have never been able to tune this thing in a have to sit it on a bucket in my sump to not over skim when it did work. Maybe I am not seeing the big pic.

It depends on what you cleaned it with and how well it was cleaned. It might need to be broken in again.
I would start as if it is a brand new skimmer; fully open the Air-Valve and Water outlet then go from there.

Yeah I am going to give that a shot. I cleaned it with vinegar and water. It’s never worked right for any tank I have used it in. It’s to strong to set in 8 inches of water I have to bring it to 2 inches for it to even begin working properly

Something isn't right! I am running Nyos 220 with Redsea S400 and have no issue. It is actually sitting in 9-9.5" of water.
Could you post a picture of your setting so we could see it is properly setup?

Wow, that is a lot bubbles!
I can't really see the other side of the skimmer but it looks like your water outlet valve is almost closed up.
This picture shown the outlet is almost closed up. You need to swing the section away from the skimmer body to fully open the water oulet.
