Update:

It has been just over a week, since adding the second Fluidizer with another 1L of pellets and completely removing the Zeolites/Reactor. I did seperate the inline of both and have been running both fluidizers seperately for a couple days now. Just found them to tumble better. So I am now running 2.5L of Pellets.

Anyways, starting last night the skimmers are going crazy, and the tank is looking even brighter/cleaner.

I just cleaned the skimmers late last night.

Not surprised that you ended up separating them. But dude that is AWESOME to hear otherwise. I can't believe how excited I am over a stupid little pellet. I want more! More! MORE! Must .. buy .. 'nother .. reactor !!!

I noticed mine are producing microbubbles like crazy lately. Is that happening to anyone else?

HEHEHE... Aren't we like little school girls, giggling over a boy... Damn these pellets. but yes, you need another reactor... Also you need to get rid of the foam, much better flow, no plugging of mulm and no cleaning.

Edit: oh yeah, no bubble issues with me, but I have my fluidizers just before a bubble trap before going to the return pump
