    Red Sea Protein Skimmer Over-skimming

    I have a Red Sea Max C130. My protein skimmer used to skim correctly, but after cleaning the sump and adding a ATO system it has been over-skimming. The water level is at the optimum water level line on the side of the tank and the skim adjuster is at its lowest position. What should I do?
