yeah i knew that hence the calls i get all the time lol ..... i argue the point all the time , we dont always see eye to eye on things and this is one for sure lol i still have yet to have someone explain the science to me behind it but i can guarantee it wasnt me who said it lol people go and throw skimmate in their tanks but yet dont understand why? i guess though lol ask me my thoughts on drip acclimating!!! youll find i dont agree with the others here on that one either lol im an old reefer though so maybe im due to be taught a lesson lol
