Strange, when i feed the skimmers stop producing bubbles. Then go back to normal about 1-2 hours later.

+1

are you adding anything to the food?

Have you tried not feeding them? j/k!

That does sound a little odd.. maybe you have really gassy fish ?

Nope. Not adding anything. Just raw with the shell shimp and blue crabs.

Literally it's within 5 minutes of putting the food in, the skimmer starts overflowing.

Is this immediately when you feed or shortly after you feed or much later after feeding?
