Prizm skimmer, problems & questions

[grammygigi]

Ok, prizm skimmer, adding micro bubbles to my tank... I have it almost all the way closed at the moment, also, not seeing any bubbles in the collection cup, I did at first, but they went away when I dialed it down... And... The collection cup is filled with water? Is that what was supposed to happen? Or should it be empty other than bubbles??
Getting ready to pull the plug, as I don't want to go to bed and wake up to a major problem...
I appreciate your response, I've been digging through old threads, but I'm not finding very much to go on... Should I empty the water out of the cup? And if so... How? Turkey baster?? I am nervous to take it apart, it's really full...
Thank you in advance for your help

Unplugged it. I'll look for more info on it elsewhere...

I take it the skimmer is brand new? Those skimmers are very finicky and require constant adjustments. They aren't a skimmer you set and forget.
