Hey reefer, have you put a PH in your tank yet? Maybe you need more water circulation if you only have the bak-pak. Just a thought ya know? It probably couldn't hurt.

Reefer , remember there hass to be something for the skimmer to remove in order for it to produce foam. You have a rather light bio load, maybe there is just nothing there. Also sometimes skimmers will not produce any skimmate for a while, then all of sudden... POW! All kinds of gunk gets released.
