today I checked my sump for my 60g frag tank and there was foam all over in the sump, thats when I noticed the collection cup full with wet foam , the over flo tube popped off(good thing) and dumped it back into the sump, I tryed to everything, I opened the clean water dump off all the way and the same thing. Its water level is too high and I cant adjust it with the water exit valve. I took the skimmer out and cleaned it all nice but the same thing. Of course becuase Im leaving tommorow in the morning for 5 days :squigglemouth:
 
did youjust glue some frags ? put in a new sock ? paint ? do something ? That would cause this issue.
 
No I didnt do any thing, I did a water change becuase this is my acan tank and Im gettting that brown jelly crap again
 
My AMS g4 plus does this occassionally after a water change as well...never quite figured out why just adjusted it and kept on skimming...
