Posted Skimmer set-up

Ok switched on my skimmer today for the first time (red sea prizm delux) and followed instructions. I have adjusted the regulater and air flow as indicated. However found instructions a little grey. I'm collected some water in the collection cup and have managed to bring it under control, but still getting some water. Do I assume as it has not had time to settle in yet that it will eventually be capturing bubbles only? Any one set one of these skimmers up before?

Are they not all a pain if you think the red sea prizm is a pain you should try a scum sucker made by D&D marine. My lovely protein skimmers fails safe failed and I managed to empty about 6 gallons out of the tank fortunately I caught it before the waste container was full.

Can't wait to get shot of it and either go skimmer less or put a tunze classic in there.
