    I used epoxy from home depot that everyone on the forums has been using. I used a full stick to join together some rock work. I am about 5 days past when I did it and I still have crazy microbubbles and my skimmer is going crazy. I have done 2 water changes and am running carbon. Any ideas what else to do?

    Thanks in advance

    ride it out, IMO
    similar thing has happened to me using the Aquamedic 2 part reef epoxy putty
    did a large batch of frags with it, probably over 3/4 of the product used in 1 go
    skimmer reacted crazy , putting mostly clear saltwater into skimmer cup ( throw this away and not back into the tank by the way or you just prolong it)

    it took 3 or 4 days to correct itself , but it did correct itself
