YIKES!!

My experience has been uneventful (I do a headcount daily, isn't that sad?). Other than one of my little prizes not being nailed down and landing in some ricordea and getting half its parts burned off, things are okay. Some epoxy did stay in overnight but I have since removed it. The water was never cloudy and I have never had issues with my skimmer that other people report while using epoxy. My skimmer just continues business as usual, I don't dial it down or turn it off or anything.

Really weird as I have used this stuff for about 3 years now without a problem and now this. I've emailed Deltec to see whats up.

And no I'm not losing it, Brad. Although you really did have me thinking for a sec. "Now I did mix up equal parts of each right?"

I found when I used a bunch of the holdfast product my skimmer would go nuts, but with the coralline colored Deltec one my skimmer has never changed pace and very little cloudyness comes off the epoxy (this can be reduced by rinsing the epoxy piece before putting it in the tank)
