i have a Octopus NW150 for my 90+30g

I OD'd vit C two weeks ago. When it happened I stopped dosing and did a 30g water change. A week later, I still cant turn my skimmer on without it just bubbling over and filling the cup within two minutes. It's all clear water as far as i can see.

I have the output adjusted for the dryest skim and this is still happening.

I took the skimmer apart and looked at the pump and all looks fine... im going to do another 30g change today, but any ideas?

I have the same problem with my skimmer at times. When I contacted the manufacturer, I was told it was something in the water that causes it. In your case, it may be the vitamin C. It usually goes away in two or three days.
