came home and the skimmer cup was full of water. Instructions say to adjust until the bubbles are at the bottom of the cup. It was slowly building up last night and this morning they had just reached the top, then I come home and it's full of water?

Any suggestions?

Give it time - it will take a few weeks for the skimmer to 'break-in' and you will find that some strange things happen during this time. Either nothing will be happening or the cup will fill with water - eventually it will even out.

Picked up some new stuff yesterday. Really happy with them and its all I am going to add to my tank for a while. Have added a lot recently so want things to settle in for a bit. Lights have only been on for 20 minutes or so, going to try take a video once everything is out.
