If you liked that one there is another article in the same publication in the following March issue that breaks down skimmate to look at what it is comprised of. That one was pretty neat too.
I agree water changes seem to be the main necessity. It's funny because I find protein skimmers to be one of the fun toys of going to the salt aspect of the hobby but in some ways when looking at articles like this it makes me believe that they capture a big slice of the hobby investment because aquarists like to buy shiny toys that have pumps and make bubbles. lol....
