How ofter do you guys add water to your tank / sump because of the skimmer. It seems that I need to add about a gallon a day because of the skimmate from the MR-1 skimmer.
Is it because I'm running it wet instead of dark foam?
"a gallon a day" may not be the right word for it. But it feels like a gallon a day. I think I need to run it a little less wet and more on the dry foamy side for a week and see how that goes.
I pull out about a 1 gallon every two days, most days I let the auto top off take care of the make up water, but every few days, I'll add back some ASW to keep the salinity from dropping.
Not too wet at all.If its green. I skim almost that much too and its still quite green. I evaporate over 2 gallons a day. So I have aut top off for evaporation and I always have salt water mixed up tp do multiple weekly WC and to replace what skimmer removes..
