super bubbles protien skimmer please help me

[shinobi9119]

Hello, if anybody has seen my tank thread in fish photography, I just got my lr n stuff in 2day.. so I am running my whole tank now. I started my protien skimmer n i now have many questions. One is the water coming out of the tube is creating many many what I think are micro bubbles when it meets the sump again. IS that supposed to happen.
second, How should the skimmer be skimming, I have adjusted the tube, but it seems to move real fast, how often shoold i be emptying it?
thank you

There should be some sort of water level adjustment. The bubbles just barely need to reach the incline of the skimmer cup. I usually have to empty mine once a week. If its filling up super fast it needs to be adjusted down. Any pic will help.
Which model Octopus Skimmer is it? There are several.
