I have that skimmer. I got it jan 3rd. Mine was overflowing also. I have it sitting in 6 inches of water, and still overflowed.
I contacted the vendor, who in turn contacted coralvue. I have the solution now. Mine works fine now.
Question (1) Is your skimmer in 6 inches of water?
(2) How long is your riser pipe ? ( n: pipe)

The pipe i got was 4 1/4 inches long and thier solution was to shorten it. They must have package the wrong length pipe.
If you need the length i can measure it for you. Hope this helps
