Gosh darn we all have these moments. The hobby can really be rough on everyone sometimes but it's so worth it in the end. I think you made the right choice

Warming up the car to drive to go get something from you LFS?

What was going on with that foam? Looks like someone put dish soap in your reef.

Does this story have an end?

[Sad Panda]

Maybe she killed him?

nah Haywood is like a cockroach, he'll be around gathering reefing equipment till the end of days! I bet he turned off the skimmer cleaned it out, added new carbon and let it run overnight.

I had that happen once when I switched out my filter socks and the new ones apparently hadn't gotten rinsed well enough on their last trip through the washing machine. There was no permanent damage, fortunately, but with a skimmer it only takes a minuscule amount to generate a ton of suds.

 

Beyond that, it sounds like he made the right choice, although in the back of my mind I couldn't help hearing Samuel L. Jackson as Frozone, "Where's my super suit?! ...

LMAO Love you guys. Well what happened was I did not fully secure the manual RODI top off valve, Yes I have an ATO but was doing my annual cleaning and had the pump soaking in vinegar. A small drip caused my sump level to rise and thus the skimmer began to overflow. ( I know Skim locker or float switch would have prevented this :( ) dark nasty skimmate spewed in to the sump causing the foam you see in the pic produced by the skimmer attempting to do it's job. Know this I always keep pre-rinsed carbon in a Ziploc ready to implement at any time. Tossed it in prior to departing. Strange enough the LPS loved it . Did a 50% WC yesterday. Still married and Reefing !!!!!!

Funny that the LPS liked the skimmer overflow.  You should start bottling raw skimmate and selling it as "Haywood's Secret LPS Grow/Thrive Nectar."  I bet lots of folks would buy it.

[Sad Panda]

I'll take two bottles.

Grats H, glad you were able to salvage the night despite the skimmer!
