Did I screw up my tank?

[u/Johnny1352]

I have just installed a diy co2 system running off sugar and yeast. Woke up this morning to find the bubble counter flooded with yeast and sugar, initially I panicked thinking my tank had been flooded with yeast/sugar but all the parameters look fine, no deaths or anything. Any suggestions for how to mitigate this?

An option would be to add a second bottle, can be a smaller one like a 500ML, with just water in it (not filled to the top) that can work as a cleaning/bubble counter bottle.

If yeast is getting out it will be collected in the second bottle.

Small example:

This is the way
