I'm confused, because he doesn't skim one shouldn't follow his proven method?
I think when you are talking thousands of gallons of water skimming becomes a touchy situation. Levels probly don't fluctuate that much with that volume, plus a skimmer(s) to work that kind of volume would cost a small fortune. I think the reason they don't skim also might have something to do with the huge water changes needed to maintain calcium and Alk levels etc. It would be cheeper to by tonnes of salt than tonnes of suppliments.
