I have a bak pak 2R skimmer and since i have switched to ro/di water I don't think I had to empty the cup once, which is about 2 weeks. I have a 55 gallon tank with a DSB and 90 lbs or fiji rock.
Fish:
YWG
Coral Beauty
Blenny
2 True Percs
Fire fish
Clean up crew:
Blood shrimp
Skunk shrimp
tiger tail
sand sifting star
Couple hermits, snails of various species.
I have a 4 gallon fuge running for the time being which also has a dsb. I also have about 1840 GPH of flow in the tank. Is my skimmer not working like it should or do I not have a big bio load? I have the cup pushed down as far as it will go and there are bubbles in the cup, but there is only like 1/2" of dark crap in there. It accumuates about 1/16" a day if that.
