Hi all. I have a reef octopus bh1000 on my 55gallon tank. I've had it for 6 months now. I have recently ran into a few issues that I'm not sure how to solve. Let me say this is my first saltwater so forgive me if these are stupid questions.
First, the waste really hasnt ever bubbled into the cup correctly. It's always got a lot of water with it. Most of the gunk sticks to the bottom underneath the cup and on the inside of the skimmer walls itself, mostly foggy water goes Into the cup. It is now having an issue where it will randomly start overflowing all over the floor, like it doesn't stop at the normal balanced waterline. At the very bottom of the skimmer itself there is a line of sludge...
Not sure what to do, are you supposed to take the skimmer off and clean it periodically? I know its not working correctly but not sure where to go... I've lost a few fish and nobody can really give me any answers. Everything is within normal limits. Suggestions?
