Another skimmer issue

[gregzz4]

OK, it's running for now. I'll watch it until bedtime
I'm keeping the foam low

Thanks for all your input

I'll report back when I can

How long has the skimmer been running?

Mine was very moody for the first couple of days, but it settled down. Aminos still seem to make it go a bit nuts, though.

The skimmer was first fired up when I started using epoxy, so about 2 weeks

I was cleaning it and the socks as needed, sometimes multiple times a day
I put the sand in on Thursday and then on Friday cleaned the skimmer out just in case there was sand in it
It seems that's when it started acting up, before the cleaning

I got tied up yesterday so today I'm doing a 15% WC. I'm hoping this will show some results as maybe, as Kenny suggested, there could be some residual glueing crap in the water

Good luck bud, hope it helps solve the issue. My epoxy was cured out of the water for a few days, as I used dry rock so I never experienced it, but have heard a few people on here report it causing some issues :P

Hope all goes well!

You da man Kenny

I blew all the crap off the rocks then changed 15%
I let it settle down for 'bout 1/2hr while I rinsed out the NSW tank and now the skimmer is back to normal

It's definately wanting to pull something out so I'll have to sit here for awhile and fine tune it

Thanks bud, great tip
