I repeat. 4 Maxijet 1200s. 2 Seio 1500s. One of the Maxijets is directed at the surface. Lots of current, IMHO. Lots of O2, IMHO.

The skimmer is weak in that it produces little skimmate. What I get in skimmate in 4 weeks a EuroReef would produce in half a day. But that's another issue in and of it's self.

Try soaking the nori in garlic extract and eventually they will get a taste for it. My tangs didn't care much for it at first, but ate it with the garlic and now go crazy for the stuff unflavoured. I fold up a strip of it and rubber band it to a small rock, soak it and then drop it in. When they are finished I get my tongs and pull the rock back out. Won't take long before they see the rock and have a Pavlov response.
