It is not the skimmer that is interfering, it is the drain between the skimmer container and the sump, I think is my bottle neck. I have gate valves in place OK n both the drain and return and I have to have everything just about shut off everything to balance the return and the drain.
I have a Sedra 7000 ( 700 gph) and 1" returns (960 gph) and 1" between the sump and skimmer container. I shouldn't have to turn them down as much as I seem to have to. I also seem to be always sitting right at the syphon break (small hole drilled into the drain), so it gets noisy.
