Default Skimmer Foam


The foam in my skimmer isn't condensing into the collection cup. It's
creeping out the vents and running down the side. I started replacing
evaporate with kalkwasser about 2 weeks ago w/ a drip line.

Any recommendations?

Thats from all the crap that went on in here last night. It has
infiltrated into the tank.......should have turned off that computer
and paid it no attentio or maybe talked a bit of sense into my Sallee
in doing what was only right.....appologize for being wrong with his
assumption...The best, or make that worst is yet to come.......YOu can
pretty much count on that! Kurt, I thought you were a pretty fair and
even mimnded individual, but I would not have thought you would hang
in this place with so many self centered righteous ****wits like Wayne
and that dude pzsme whatever......One simple word would have probbaly
been more thansufficient in helping stave off what happened here due
to Carol Gulley...ever here of the word "SORRY" probably so, but
wayne is stil lookin up the meaning of it.......Hey its the usenet it
don't mean a thing to most......Have a good day Kurt......check out
creativereefing.com.......laid back bunch of reefers, lots of good
info and not as knit pickey as reef central......Even a bit of clean
humor on creative reefing.....

It's always someone else's fault, eh? Whose fault will it be the next time
you go postal here on someone?

I'll do that, Tristan.

I can say that I'm sorry about the meltdown, but I'm use to walking
through **** storms. It's just part of life sometimes.

As you say, sometimes it's just best to turn off the computer, walk
away, and do something else for a while.

The problem is this happens over and over again with Tristan until the
group he's in is a mess.

Well Kurt, you and George were the only two sensible folks in this
group that seen I was not the problem, yet your info was ignored by
Wayne. Do I hate it happend, yea sure do, could it have been
prevented, wellyes and no, the actions could certainly have been
reduced and it would stil be a functioning group right now, however
you and George were in the mionority here and all the others thought
they could control this event, which was just not so...
So now all those others have scattered like rats on a sinking ship, no
useable group is to be found here. So maybe its time top pack up and
checkout the creatiuve reefing forum.....I bet you that you'll like
it.......Invite George as well as everyone thats not a troll or
control freak is welcome there but they let pretty much anyone in if
they promise to behave......No heavy handed moderation like the other
online reef and marine forums, just knowlegeable and friendly
folks........in love with their reef tanks......

The Kalkwasser increases skimmer actions, so you
need to reduce the air input.
