Skimmer Help - Water Level Drops After Couple Minutes

What up guys. Hoping to get a little help with my protein skimmer. Its a CAD Lights Gen 3 Pipeless Skimmer. Produces great skimm but had a problem come up in the last couple months.

When I turn on the skimmer the water level goes to where I set it at, but then after 5-10 minutes the water level drops a couple inches. I just tried cleaning the whole unit and pump, but same thing.

I turn off the skimmer then immediately turn it on and the same thing, water goes to where I set it then it falls. Anything you guys can think of??

Thanks again. Pics below.
