Skimmer overflowing after new LifeRock

[Sstadler]

Hello. Pretty simple question. I added 20 more lbs of Carib Sea LifeRock to my tank. Since then, my skimmer has been overflowing constantly (3 days), almost like it’s getting re-broken in. My skimmer was already broken in and producing good skimmate. How can I get my skimmer back in action? Right now I have it just overflowing back into the skimmer chamber on its lowest setting... TIA !

Bump? Still doing it...

It could be that the pink coating wasn't fully cured or that it had a bit of residue left on it. Either way, your skimmer is overflowing because it's trying to remove whatever is in the water. I'd let it skim it out, emptying the skimmer cup as often as needed and make up for the lost water by topping up with mixed SW. It'll stop soon enough and go back to normal.
