Question:
The airline valve on the RS250 I run on my Trigger Tank frequently gets plugged quickly. I'm not sure exactly what it is. I don't dose Ca in this tank, but the substance's texture seems calcareous (sp?) and is a dark grey. Maybe it's a mix of Ca from the LR and nutrient sludge.
Anyhoo, I'm wondering if anyone out there runs their EuroReef without that stupid valve at the end of the airline. I have the valve on mine wide open all the time so I'm thinking why not just take it off and then maybe it won't plug up as often.

Thanx much,
