Float valve

Yea I was just not going to run it at all.. but I the guy at the LFS said I could. I'll keep it low then until I get a bigger bioload. Its building up foam and everything but its not really pulling stuff out, which I didn't expect but yea I just can't get it right

 

yeah just let it chill..and dont touch it for a few days, it will pull a little out..but it just needs to build some protein up in it to produce that foam..

anytime u change the skimmer one little bit, then that usually throws it off completely and it kinda has to restart its process..

 

Thats lame! I didn't know that I'll let it be then. thanks

How often and how much do you top off your tank?

 

about a half gallon a day.. it really just depends on the weather.. but at least a half gallon..

 

alright cool!
