For a small fee I can make you an electronic timer for your
skimmer pump which will prevent this happening again :-)
You just set the time the pump needs to be off for, let's
say 15 minutes and it will turn itself back on automatically
after the given time lapse :-) What do you think about this idea? ;-)


What would be better is one I turn off but comes back on in three minutes.


This is exactly what I was talking about.
A timer would be normally ON and when feeding you press one button
which will turn the pump OFF and starts the timer ticking...
After 15 minutes your skimmer pump will turn itself ON automatically.

I just check the angel and she seems just fine now. Quite a scare.
Brought back memories of when my wife was taking care of the tanks.


It was probably lack of oxygen due to the interrupt in water circulation.
