Dosing Skimmate - Are we over skimming?
So we had a discussion at the shop this past Friday with some clients concerning DOSING SKIMMATE. Its apparently all the rage on RC.
One of our clients has been having great success by dosing some skimmate back into his tank. He swears that his corals are in the best shape they have ever been.
Skimmers have improved tremendously in the pas few years. Most people are buying skimmers rated for 2+ Times their volume.
I see how this would benefit. If you have a low bio-load and you are skimming the crap out of it, you are likely starving your coral unless you compensate with "coral food".
Pleas discuss. I'll be back later tonight...of to a Sunday lunch at moms.
