    Air works better than a recirculator, Stratos recirc pumps work but it foams things up, putting my air back in mine one day this week. Timer on the areator helps keep fresh water in there too.

    Keep some of that powder coffee creamer in the boat. Sprinkle it on the water if it starts to foam up and it will knock the foam down.

    Foaming is caused by the Amonia building up in the water, air or recic water both going to do same thing in this heat. You really need to replace part of the water along with air or recirc. I run 2 air stones in mine along with a timer on fill pump to replenish water. Mine set on 7 minutes off and 1 on will still get some foam when temps get high. Then I go to 3 off 1 on and most of the time that takes care of it.

    We always used the plain non-dairy coffee creamer powder like you get in the packs at restaurants and gas stations. We did have a thing of coffee mate for awhile. When you see foam just sprinkle a pack on top. Will not harm fish at all. We used it in our shad tank catfishing a lot. That foam is a sure killer it won't let harmful gasses escape the water.

    I put the air back in mine this morning and got the aerators to add water every few minutes, working like a charm
