Hopefully this can save a Marshian some headaches.
Initially I setup my recirculating co2 reactor with great success. Got my pH to 8.5 and averaged 8.3. Unfortunately, my skimmer went crazy for some reason and overflowed my reactor. Ruined my media and defeats the purpose of recirculating.
This is what I made to prevent this from ever happening again. I taped the three holes on the skimmer lid for true recirculation.
