Quick Chemiclean question.

[Papadovak]

Just added the chemiclean and my skimmer us going nuts like I was told it would. Do I replace the water with Rodi water or salt water? I'm assuming salt since it's not evaporating. Just wanna make sure.

Check your salinity first. You never know, your salt may have been off in the first place and that dump out of water may have helped you.

I try to keep it at a even 1.023 which it usually is. And after it was low a solid 1.023. So I added salt water I guess I kind freaked out when it started dumping water out lol

Probably a good idea just to turn the skimmer off.

Dont do this. A common problem is that chemiclean can lower O2 level and kill your fish. I would take off the collection cup and let it run over in the sump.

You should turn the skimmer off and run an air stone according to the directions.

I typically adjust my skimmer down so it doesn't go nuts but keep putting in oxygen in the system
