I hooked up a new biopellet reactor yesterday reusing my old pellets its much more flow than my previous reactor.

However now my skimmer is creating alot of fine bubbles on top but no foam and its sending out alot of microbubbles into display.

Should i be worried? Also my idol has less appetite today which is not normal I turned on the UV if there is some bacterial overload.

Might wanna run an airstone temporarily just in case oxygen levels decrease a little if you suspect too much bacterial activity
