![]() I find that I have to feed lots to keep nutrients in the tank, I use lots of biopellets and HC GFO

![]() Hmm, I dunno, I feed 3 times a day & always thought that was a bit much based on other folks' feeding routine. I feed to keep my fish fat & healthy, not to keep nutrient levels up. Anyhow, I don't run any biopellets or HC GFO & haven't checked nutrient levels for a while, but tank's running fine. I don't sweat the bubble collapse on my skimmer. They always come back eventually & it pulls enough gunk. Clearly if bubble collapse is a concern & you feed that often, you'll need to modify your routine one way or another..... or live with it.
I'd say run fewer biopellets etc., feed less often & save money!

![]() Makes sense. I guess 3 times a day would be more than enough. I plan to run apex autofeeder and have apex ramp down my dc return pump to a minimum just to keep a flow. I have some questions about powerhead flow during feeding and also if the LED lights should dim a bit during feeding aswell. But thats for another thread
