    pH help please

    pH is also lower during the day than it is at night. Mine used to be 7.8 during the day and 8.2 at night during my cycle. Now its 8.0 during the day and 8.4 at night. I dunno when you test but u might wanna try and do it the same time everyday.

    Feeding Cleaner

    How much should i feed a cleaner shrimp? I bought some uncooked, unseasoned seafood from the grocery store. I gave him a small piece. Maybe a half the size of my pinkie nail. Hope that isnt too much.

    expert help on skimmer

    Your gonna get mixed opinions on this subject. I personally ran mine for the whole cycle. It may slow the cycle down a bit. I was curing live rock and cycling so running mine helped keep the smell of the rock at a minimum. I would say running it wouldnt really hurt anything.
