Marko I did 150 gallon worth of changes. And fineally tied skimmer into Pail. It was filling for a bit then got speratic. It will calm down though.

So keep the skimmer running and overflowing?

This is what I had to do after my last dose of chemi pure.
I replaced by volume 75% of tank water over 3 changes and the skimmer wouldnt settle down until then.
