Hey Fellow Reefers, not sure if anyone ran into this issue ((Excessive Microbubbles)) from the Ice Cap Nano Skimmer. I have had it less than a month now or close to it. It ran perfectly the first three weeks. However, in the last 4 days, the skimmer just started to produce an excessive amount of microbubbles and filling the collection up within minutes (less than 5 minutes). The skimmer at one point did collect some GOOD dark skimmer but just stop recently. I have it on an IM Nano 20 in the Skimmer Refugium. The videos below are done within minutes of each other after dumping out the collection cup...Any thoughts?


 
Have you started dosing something? Have you tried adjusting it with the level adjustment knob?
Hi, thx for your reply. I am dosing Tropic Marin ALL for Reef and ReefAB+..similar to the same 3 weeks ago, daily on a regular schedule. But as I mentioned, 3 or 4 days ago, the Microbubbles just kept going and going
