Wow John, that seems like a pretty frequent (and busy) cleaning schedule. I am not saying it is good or bad but except for dumping out the skimate I have not cleaned my skimmer for at least 5 or 6 months.

And I agree, with bi-weekly 15%-20% water changes plenty of trace elements are reintroduced into the system.

And I also agree that our tanks cannot be over-skimmed. "The solution to pollution is dillution" But inbetween dillutions there is nothing like a good skimmer.

Hey Dave, don't let the old man get on you too bad. One day we will also have the good fortune of retiring, and doing nothing but sitting here nit-picking everyone's posts.
