    Default remove hob filter and use live rock for nitrate control


    Hi I have been reading that the hob filter is not necessary in tanks that have cycled.
    I have a 15 gallon tank with a hob filter with just floss. The tank has cycled. I have a chromis, yellow watchman goby and some green implosion soft coral with live rock. This is day 43 for the set up. Is it time for me to take the media (floss) permanently out of the filter? Any opinions welcome.
