Default skimmer psycho bubbles

I epoxy & crazy glued about 5 frags this past weekend and I'm still getting way too many bubbles coming from my AquaC Remora in the sump.

Up until the frags were added, I was getting about 1/4-cup of almost black sludge every 2-3 days.

How long does the bubble-fest usually last?

A while back some people were having the same complaints about bubbles after using epoxy. Try a search on epoxy problems you may find a solution. Other than that do a water change.

I did a search and the only solution - other than a water change - that I could find was to toss in some charcoal, and/or pull the skimmer & give it a cleaning (in case any chemical is stuck to the housing) ...

Anybody seen any other fixes?
