If i recall correctly, the consensus was: Yes, you can run a successful skimmerless SPS tank, so long as you remove/export nutrients yourself. This can be achieved by one or all of the following techniques:
1. Perform a 50% water change once a day. 2. reduce (or stop) feeding your fish. 3. Remove some (mostly all) of your fish. The equation for success is simple: S = NO > NI where: S = Success NO = Nutrients Out NI = Nutrients In |
