Just send it to a collection container.

In my opinion, it's silly to make protein skimmers
with collection cups. I think they all should just
be made to feed into a separate collection
container. via hose.

Mine always looks like that, although it moves like a glacier. For some
reason, my foam refuses to condense, so after it forms, it will give the
illusion of a slow motion boiling over mass of foam.

Without an anti-foaming agent, the will occupy every space available and
then foam out of every orifice that it can find. I haven't heard of
this happening to anybody else.
