your skimmer cup is not level. get it level with the oring that is on it and tighten the set screw. after you set the screw tuck the o-ring downa all the way aroung the base so that water does not comeup over the cup
Thanks for the encouragement guys! I think I still need more rock...after looking at yote's tank, I'm very jealous!
Daugherty, yup - fixed it last night! I was playing with it before I took a break to take some photos - still trying to get it just right. What's the ideal collection amount? A full cup per week, 2 weeks,etc or is it just varyable for how much junk you have in your tank?

Good start. The skimmate has a lot to do with how you want to skim. I like to skim dryfor 5 days of the week. On the weekends when I am home more I blow off the rocks with a turkey baster and skim a little wetter.
