![]() I started using the NPx pellets 2 days ago in a Vertex Uf-20 reactor, did anyone notice how long it took for their skimmer to return to being able to produce skimmate?
Right now its just rapid bubble popping at the top no foam head at all. |

does your skimmer produce form head without vertex reactor running? The only thing i notice what pellets did to my skimage is color from green to dark brown |

![]() I personally didn't have that problem, and my skimmer worked fine. As Coleus stated, my skimmate to went from green to dark brown, probably due to the fact there was no more algae, and now it was just removing the excess nutrients.
