Default Oh My REVOLTING GOD!

Well skimmer cup all of a sudden started filling with water, after about 4 days of sludge build up. Normal right? well everything except suddenly filling with water. Soooo.. i decided instead of taking the cup off an emptying it i would siphon it out...mouth full of skimmate later...i'll never do that again. I feel ill.

Makes me think of all those people that were playing in all the "foam" (natural skimmate) that washed up on the shores not too long ago. YUMMY!

You are, my sir, the next candidate to appear in one of those Orbit chewing gum commercials.

I can still taste it...i don't know if it is in my head only now or what but i can taste. I did get sick..a little, but i figured vomit would not be good in my sump. I am buying an oversized turkey baster sepcifically for if this ever happens again. On a side note it was super salty...yuck.
