Quietest protein skimmer

[brisco]

do you need to skim full time? You could always employ a timer to turn off the skimmer when it's beddy time?

Thanks for all the help, I am looking into all of these skimmers, some are harder to find then others in Canada. As for the putting it on a timer, I've heard it takes skimmers a few days to set in and if you keep turning it on and off, it never gets to its optimal state?

Seaclone isn't going to do much anyway, invest in a better skimmer.

I find the sound my Red Sea PRIZM Deluxe Protein Skimmer makes so soothing it puts me to sleep!

I think that most reefers have their protein skimmer shut off during feeding, so I don't think that it should effect the break in cycle.

That's a good poll question. I think you'd be surprised with the answer.

okay at least one reefer turns off his skimmer during feeding
