Trying Polyp Lab's "System Reef-resh" this weekend.

Lets see pics pics pics In our hobby and this industry, two things talk. MONEY and PICTURES.

On the depressing part about money, I wish I could afford this product but with the water volume that I will have in the near future and with the products in its current size of bottles, it will only last me 2-3 weeks. Thats the crappy part about going big- everything just costs more!!

"If a person was running a skimmer on there system that was just able to keep up with removing the nutrients out of there reef or running at 100% efficiency without them knowing so, wouldn't the results of using this product do more harm than good?"


I believe your are asking:
"If your skimmer is already working at a maximum load, won't the product cause the skimmer to be over loaded?


No. Skimmer performance is based on contact time, bubble size and also the type of organic material you are trying to skim out. Bacteria cells have a very high affinity to the surface of a gas-liquid interface. So efficiency is improved when you are trying to skim out bacterial flock. You will notice that your skimmer is producing more skimmate when using this product.

I started this system on Saturday and I have already noticed that my skimmate is thicker.
By the way, as I have already posted ,I have took pics of some test frags (from Chilliwackreefer) and recorded prams. before I started and will post updated pics. every Sunday, starting next week...

Does anyone that has been using this have an update? Maybe some pictures?

I started using it last wednesday, can't really say if it makes a difference yet or not, although my yellow fiji leather appears to love it

What I have noticed, is my skimmer (a berlin xl) will no longer produce a wet skimmate and it's turned up as high as it can go. The skimmate looks kind of like baby diahrea, same consistency and same yellow brown colour and lots of it
