It looks as though you have it running a little deep. Recomended water level for these cone skimmers is 6-7"

6" inside the skimmer or 6" depth in sump? I meant depth in sump should be 6 in

Every skimmer is different for breaking in. You could put some skimmate in the sump and let it work on that it should speed up the process.
