Need a reef expert....

Can you please get your nitates and phosphates tested also you Alkalinty tested. Blue World can test them for you, maybe.....then we can decide on what is happening. Increasing your Redox level would help as well.

Skimmer looks like an ASM, can you tell us what the height and diameter of the reaction chamber are and what the pump is that is feeding the skimmer for example "a Sedra 5000"

So Oilfieldsafety I just had a brain fart and I looked online where I bought the darn thing and if by ASM you mean All Seas Marine G Series than you are correct. I am almost positive that is what it is. Now in your professional opinion is that a good grade skimmer or not so much. If not so much than what is a high end brand that would be a good investment for a tank of my size..... 280G....

I just put in an ASM G3 and took out my vertex 250. I like my vertex better but I modded the G3 and now it is better

[fencer]

That ASM is too small for a 280

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

I would upgrade to a Bubble Magus since I don't think that ASM is big enough for your size tank.

Well It says that the G4 skimmer is good for 380G. Fencer what modifications did you do that increased it's effectivness?
