Folks,
I recently (last saturday) did a tank overhaul, which included a lot of mucking up the sand, rocks, detritus, corals use of epoxy, and even placement of a newly cut leather....
naturally the skimmer is going crazy!
i did a water change on the day of the work, (the skimmer is a remora Pro, which used to fill the cup every few weeks)
It is now connected to the hose allowing it to overflow, and fills my bucket about 2 gallons of very light skimate a day......
The skimmer cup is at the highest (furthest) level meaning skimmate is as low as it can get... I can't turn it down any more...
1) will this resolve in a few more days (it's been 6) of the weak skimate coming off (is it actually removing crap)? I am replacing the lost water with newly made saltwater...
2) Is there anythign I can do to adjust the skimmer other than turning it off to stop this?
thanks
