I have an Octopus XS 1000 skimmer. It is on a small paltorm box in my sump that i made for it that keeps it always in the optimum level of water (5.5 inches) and i have it set to run on the drier side of wet. However, with seemingly no reason every few weeks/days my skimmer will go freaking crazy and overflow. Filling up my skimmer colector that then spills inside my stand (I just placed an order for an AVAST skimmate locker that will turn my skimmer off when it fills up. Does any one know why the hell this happens? is it cause of bacterial blooms? My levels are perfect (PH 8.2, alk 9-10, calc: 420-440) my sump light is on 24/7. Any ideas?
