Thanks for the appreciation btw

Screech.......

I never said for you to run no cleanup Crew, I said I don't have a CUC, but I have a large natural CUC, I also said no crabs which I don't use for obvious reasons.

Your tank and my tank are completely different, for you to run your tank like mine will likely end up with pollution problems.

Basically I'm order to feed heavily you need to be able to export what you don't use, with no Skimmer is next to impossible, a low nutrient with no Skimmer sire but high nutrient ain't gonna happen.

Feeding your tank more food than you export is asking for trouble.

I run a Skimmer for 8x my tank volume and rum gfo aggressively, if I didn't I would be screwed.

Overfeeding is an advanced method, if not done right you'll mess your tank up bad, hence the reason everyone says not to overfeeding

Exactly. Myself like Denny I run a natural cuc of brissle worms and pods. There numbers let me know if I over feed or not. But I run a overkill skimmer and Change socks out daily. Along with prodibio and rowa. For the most part my two fish and one shrimp are hand fed. I also feed zeo to my coral which I found helps my skimmer performance.

Add a skimmer to the left side behind the leather coral.

I also have lots and lots of bristle worm and they do a great job. Pods are there too but not sure about their activity. Skimmer is not an option for me because I don't have any hanging spot left in my tank + all the HOB skimmers seems like they always produce wet skimmate, sucking up salinity.

Which prodibio product are you referring to?

You kinda did scare me of cucs LOL. Your "don't rely on CuC" still gets my eyes off any cuc :P

Come on I can never ever ever compare my tank with yours!

Yah I guess I have to cut down on the feeding. I just lost control in the last few days with the feeding!

BTW I went to concepts today to get Elos nitrate kit but it was closed. Will the store be open tomorrow?
