I was skeptical about peppermint shrimp eating aptasia. I bought two and the apatasia was toast! Tried chemical killers in the past with no success. I’m a believer.
So 9 went ballistic. At 12-13 setting for about a week. The old Vertex seemed to have finer bubbles to the neck. For some reason, the bubbles enlarge in the neck on this skimmer. Skimmate still medium tea.
Sorry no. I think this is still breaking in. This is day 4 and the gunk is medium colored tea. Rotten egg smell. I’m sure it will get better. My broken in Vertex pulled darker skimmate.
Started it Tuesday evening, this is Sat AM cup.
Setting it at 9 today. One click.
About 7 inches of water. Adjustment at “16” per instructions. About 1 1/2 hours later bubbles made it to the cup. Large bubbles at the moment. Will check tomorrow AM.
I started using phosguard and will just swap the small bag out. I got to lazy with GFO.
Thanks for all the opinions. Read that Potential leaching of aluminum would be in low PH or something...
We will see.
