Nice skimmer.
You have nothing to skim though so you better pee in the tank and get that bad boy working.

Actually I was skimming wet last night and it has already pulled out a full cup with lots of solids and a light tea color! The rock definitely has a boatload of crap in it and it's now my mission to clean it up! I still am AMAZED at how much foam this skimmer pulls. It's so luxurious I wanna lather myself up for a shave haha.

I'm treating the wife to dinner up north today. Red coral happens to be close by as well. Might have to pickup my live rock lol.

Picked up a very small amount of live rock and some chaeto. I'm going to let patience do the rest I guess. Skimmer continues to pull some fairly funky water out of the system.

I'm trying my best to not run the lights but already I'm sitting in front of the tank dreaming lol...
