Think about this...
My tank ran well for 8 months till my skimmer crapped out, it took me nearly three months to get it working again, in that time I've lost probably a dozen sps, tons of zoos, and battled cyano and gha/bubble algae, cloudy water. I had to take my rock out and cook it cause nothing or not enough was being removed by weekly water changes. Imo adding to the build up of nutrients in my system.
It's finally skimming as of yesterday, and already my water is 100x more clear, so I can only imagine the long term benefits.
