Take a picture of the problem and post it here, I´ll tell you what it is.

Also test for nitrates and phosphates and tell us the reading.

Skimming is ok, I always skimmed while I was having the dino problem, the truth is, I don´t know what would happen if you stop skimming, perhaps the nitrates would appear fast and eliminate the dinos, or perhaps another problem would be created since there are many thigns that play a role in the tank chemistry: inorganic compaunds as well as organic ones.
