    Simple Fuge Question

    Guess this is a dumb question- sorry. I am adding an 8 gal, under-tank fuge (new live sand, LR & chaeto) to my BC29, which is well established w LR, LRR, Tunze skimmer, etc. Since the fuge will be new, will it cycle? I was wondering if I should look for an increased bio-load in the DT...

    BC-29 Filtration/Skimming

    Hello... I've read so much of late here about protein skimmers, I feel like my head's gonna implode. It all started when I realized I didn't like the air-driven Oceanic skimmer in my BC29. The skimmate is nominal, I have to adjust the airflow every day, and it's really not very stable hanging...
