YouTube Video: This Is What Skimmate Should Look Like!

Draining an impressive amount of sludge from one of our five Vertex Alpha 200s.

wait what! i thought i was suppose to clean the whole top part. I just have to drain the liquid out of it? I didnt know that!!!

You should! It's best for efficiency if you do clean the whole cup and neck.

The first picture here is what we collected in 3 days on one of our lightly stocked reef systems. The rest of the pictures are typical of what we collect daily.

And this is what you get when things aren't dialed in right.

I think I just puked a little in my mouth.... YUCK!!!!

And thanks for reminding me to check my collection cup when I get home.

Bring it on! :razz:

Honestly the Deltec skimmers are very, very good.
