What is Skimming? by Randy Holmes-Farley - Reefkeeping.com
Right, what I meant was that trace elements are not directly removed. For example, skimming does not directly remove strontium or magnesium. However, of course, if an organic protein or organism has absorbed (or adsorbed, whichever the case may be) this specific compound then obviously it will be removed along with the organic.
