The quick answer is yes it is normal for the skimmer to go crazy when you add medicines. Most medicines will cause your skimmer to foam like crazy. You probably should turn the skimmer off(or at least remove the skimmate box that the remora deposits your skimmate in) during the treatment process as it is diluting your medicine treatment and not really performing its job.
What is your salinity at now? Have you been topping the tank with saltwater or fresh?
Good luck. |
