Default Violent Churning during fermentation!

I'm very new, this is my first beer, and the first time I've used a liquid yeast.

Here was the trub the night that I boiled


And the next evening, it had begun churning so violently that it had eroded most of the trub off the bottom of the carboy. The next morning no trub was visible, but finally a few days later is beginning to accumulate again


Is that normal?

I had the exact same thing happen with the beer I brewed on Saturday. The trub at the bottom is still in suspension. I expect in the next 4-5 days that everything will start to settle again once fermentation is done or almost done.

Perfectly normal and fun to watch. I had high hopes for this thread when I clicked on it, then I noticed that is was not behind the firewall.
