skimmer going crazy!

Alright well I started adding Kent Garlic Extreme to the fish food (frozen brine, sprinula, etc.) and I noticed that when the pieces break apart the skimmer starts going crazy and starts running extremely wet...does anyone have any idea why? Before I never had this problem but once I started dosing the food with garlic extreme its just been insane.

It is probably looking at the oils in the garlic??
I would like to know more was there any other additions?
