    Why is foam formation too strong in my Sera aquarium?

      Strong foam formation, very brownish flotate, and very sticky foam in your Sera aquarium often indicate that the water is heavily polluted. Perform a partial water change and reduce the amount of food you're feeding your fish.

      If the foam formation in your Sera aquarium breaks down, it could be due to feeding fatty foods like fish or mussels. The foam formation should begin again after a few hours. Another possible cause is a congested air intake. In this case, clean the air intake or open it further.

      If the foam is too moist or there is too much foam in your Sera aquarium, it is likely that the water level within the unit is too high. To resolve this, place the skimmer in a higher position.

      If the foam in your Sera aquarium is too dry or very viscous, it could be caused by the water level within the unit being too low. Immerse the skimmer deeper. Another possible cause is insufficient pump performance. Clean the rotor, shaft, and intake nozzle.

      Laura HarrisAug 21, 2025
      An insufficient air intake rate in your Sera aquarium could be due to several reasons: * The intake valve may not be opened sufficiently – open the intake valve further. * The air hose may be encrusted with lime or is dirty – clean the air hose. * The intake nozzle on the pump may be dirty – clean the intake nozzle. * The pump performance may be too low – clean the rotor and shaft.
