Skimming during a cycle

Postby towns.9 » Tue Nov 24, 2009 10:00 pm

Hi,
I am in the process of setting up a new tank and would like to ask if it is ok to have the skimmer running ? or should I leave the skimmer off until everything has matured and all nitrates have reached zero?

Hi,

No keep your skimmer running.

You still need to remove and decay and keep DOC low.
