After cleaning my skimmer it will take a day or two to create the bubbles and dry foam again.
Really? because i usually take it off and clean it out and do a little waterchange but yesterrday i did a big water change.
Does it take yours a couple days to bubble after you do a waterchange?? Or just taking it off and empty/cleaning it????

if it's not bubbling at all, even in the reaction chamber, there's a problem with the skimmer. either no air is getting in or maybe the impellar or shaft is broken. double check these things.
ya its not bubbling in the chamber at all. ill take it apart and check it all but idont see how it broke i just turned it off for a minute cleaned it and did a waterchange

Could it be that little bit of your cleaning agent was left in the chamber? What did you clean it with?
