Are you running carbon? Another thought is my skimmer had a ozone port I never noticed and was always overflowing so I only ran 1 pump then I figured out the hole had to be plugged.

ya well actually my skimmer has a recirculation option in it witch i plugged. now i just put a valve on the air intake and its skimming for now.. but i kinda find it a bit stupid i need to run it not at 100%.. hopefully it will remove what ever is in the water and tomoro morning it will be be better lol.. i just have tons of sps and im worried a bit .. but it is what it is.. im sure it will be fine eventually .. just never taught i could take so long to settle down...

oh and yes im actually runing passive carbon in a mesh AND i got another 150grams of rox 0.8 in a reactor... but that dint help a bit.
