you may find that you dont like the prizm skimmer, they are not the greatest. you want it to be set that only foam/bubbles are going into the cup.. if water is going into the cup you have it set too high

should it foam up even tho its a new setup

Prizm Skimmer

BUY A NEW ONE those skimmers are the lowest quality skimmer's on the market and yes adjust the skimmer so the bubbles are halfway up the cup but not flowing into the cup

I have a prizm. You want to adjust it so that when you look at the front of it, the water level is just below the bottom of the collection cup. Are you using the surface skimmer attachment? It's easier to control when you aren't using that.
