I just had a similar experience four days ago. Except I was using square
juice bottles with rigid sides to avoid the collapsing problem. However,
water back-flowed into the bottle and then out again into the tank.
Emptying not the whole bottle, but enough so that the water started
getting cloudy white.
I changed a bunch of water and left an airstone running for about 2 days.
The yeast looked mostly cleared by then, and I tentatively turned it off
two mornings ago. There was bubbling of plants that night, and all seems
well now.
