Default i did an oops in my infinite brain lapses

i did a water change last night and due to being 5 gal short of water i added tap water to my ro water. which all in all is not too terrible but i added a water conditionoer to help remove clorine and whatnot just on the safe side.

well this water conditioner now has made my skimmer freak out and all it does is over flow..yeah me... so my question is would fresh carbon help remove some of that stuff and calm the skimmer gremlin. or should i just do a couple more water changesd in hopes that it will clear it out.

any advice apreciated.. i need to all to get well in my world again
