Re: Over Skimming

Well technically you CAN over skim but by skimming you are making it less critical on feeding etc etc.

I don't think anyone should run a Reef tank without skimming because water quality is so important. Is the skimmer adjustable? Can't you adjut it down some?

By the way. the fusion skimmer is junk. You did good by replacing it.

Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...(-NO3=WC%)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.

Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!
