Which skimmer is that? Looks like its running great!
Super Reef Octopus 3000 (w/ new bubble blaster pump) I had to add some salt today and it screwed up the skimmer a bit. Like it made that "spot" that is perfect skimming kinda go way down. So I had to mess with it a whole bunch today to get it back just right. Think its doing what it's suppose to be doing now again I am thinking this skimmer rocks because I hear about skimmers needing to be broken in. . . yeah not this one I guess.
nice elegance... you already have a star in there? i've always thought that tanks need to be established so it has food to eat, but i've been wrong before.
Of course I never had a spike, ammonia nitrates or nitrites. . . . its the awesomely cured live rock I think. You will have to come see it, my photographing lack of skills doesn't do it justice.
