| Re: Help-Skimmer Causing Tank to fill with Bubbles
2manyhobbies,
Welcome to the RedSea Forum! The skimmer is reacting to whatever you have put in your tank water. Medication, other additives, etc.
Add new carbon when you are done medicating the fish. Then, after the carbon has ran a few days and removed the medicine you can turn the skimmer back on and it should then be settled down.
What are you adding medication to the tank for? Are you adding copper? Adding medication many times gets into the live rock and sand is is VERY difficult to get out of the system!!!
If a fish is not stressed out, and is fed well they will recover on their own. Adding medication is tricky business, and I would not recommend it.
But a skimmer will go nuts when adding different chemicals to the tank. It's totally normal!
Hope this helps
