So I just got my very first Eshopps nano protein skimmer in my 16g biocube that I placed in the middle chamber. It was a bit of a tight squeeze but I got it to fit.

I’ve had it for 1 day now and the bubbles will not stop coming out super fast regardless of the depth I place it. I fully submerged the pump then brought it up just slightly so the top of it was out of water but nothing seems to work no matter how much I play with it. I know that there’s a “break-in” period for skimmers but I was a little alarmed that the collection was filling so fast (less than 20 mins).

Protein skimmers are new to me so any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated!!

Without seeing it I'd say it needs to go higher outta the water or adjusted another way if there is one...sometimes u can raise the collection cup and adjust it further.
