Chemiclean

Hello all, I completed the 48hrs of chemiclean treatment. I did around a 20% wc, and added carbon. I still have two airdromes running. Can I pull them out now?

Is your skimmer running?

I’m using the pump for the air stone from the skimmer for a better air stone while running I ran the chemiclean. I’ll get the skimmer going today

Is the skimmer running correctly or going 'nuts'?

Ok, as long as the skimmer or the stones are running you should be fine.

It sounds like you used the airstones instead of the skimmer, which is fine. I think it's generally recommended to just leave your skimmer running for oxygen, but overflowing (which is what I have done). I also found that one of the easiest ways to remove Chemiclean from the system is to skim it out. When you do your water change, just hook a line up from your skimmer to a bucket.
