mud filtration

[helpme74]

:help: I'm getting a mud filtration system and i want to know if i need to have bio balls or is the Miracle Mud and the Caulerpa going to be good with a skimmer. if you got a mud filtration system let me know how it works and how you have your system set up.someone told me that bio balls build up alot of nutrientsis this true?

the bioballs used in the ecosystem are to fuel the macro algae with nitrates.
but may also fuel hair algae.
I just setup a ecosystem 3616 pro sump with skimmer.
I am experimenting to see if the chaeto will outcompete the hair algae
and if it does not ..well, then it's a flawed method.
Then the only other option will be to replace mud with dsb. :thinking:
