U said one of ur skimmers stopped working? Did u take it out? Id also check for stray voltage. If u haven't added fish in a long time and now see ich then something is stressing out ur fish
both of my skimmers are currently off. one doesnt quiet work, it pumps but idk if its just not pumping to the cup beacuse of the fish keeper and malfex (i got malafex from coral collection, who recommended it. but the dose is still in my system, i can smell it in my sump.. and it irrates my other skimmer and foams up the entire tank... also i have a grounding prob connected to outside so there shouldnt be any electral current
