Chemicals

[RIPTANK]

This might be a stupid question but as a new reefer myself, I have purchased all them fancy bottles of chemicals needed in reef keeping. My concern is that won't the protein skimmer and carbon just remove most of the chemicals anyways before the corals can absorb them???

Do you guys keep the protein skimmer and canister filters running when you dose your tanks?

BTW: Thanks kien for the Calcium and Alk tutorials! Love the threads!
