What is causing this?
For some reason the volume of the water in the display tank raised to the point where the first prong of the auto shut off was submerged. This tip is a bit rusty.
The skimmer went crazy for a day until the auto top off came on which made the bubbles go down.
I did a 6.5 gal water change and the skimmer went down further. During the change the water reached the tip again, but briefly because I cut the power to the return pump. While the water was down I covered the tip in silicone grease.
The skimmer stayed low for 24 hrs, then it started to go crazy again until the auto top off came back on, which helped to calm it down again.
Not sure what is causing the skimmer to go crazy. The gate is completely open too. Help.
Also. Tank has cycled and I'm just starting to stock it... Just has two emerald crabs in it.
