Calling all LifeReef skimmer owners!

I had a thread couple months ago about this. I finally got my skimmer running again. It worked great for 2 days. It was making some good skimmate. Sometime last night it went crazy. It filled up my 2 gallon collection bucket. What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance
Mike

Looking for info on Lifereef Cakcium reactors and came across this thread. I have a large VS372 Lifereef skimmer. Occasionally the level in the skimmer changes or it skims more and quickly fills the cup, or the level in the skimmer may drop. I'm wondering if you've contacted Jeff at Lifereef with your question?

I have a lifereef skimmer and have the same problem. One thing I noticed is when I would feed my coral the skimmer would overflow and I would have to adjust it slightly. now I have my skimmer sitting in a plastic container with a bulk head and PVC pipe going to my sump, this way no water on the floor, just in case it happens again.
