    peppermint shirmp not as effective as I though

    They eat when they feel like it 1 day you wake up and the job's done,they don't go to work right away, but when they do they work fast,I don't have any LPS corals and love the peppermint shrimp cause once you have ataspia they somehow always return one in the overflow or somewhere.

    Lets talk skimmers

    Warning*** I wouldn't give the ETSS skimmer any consideration I had the 800 model it's super loud with the recommended Iwaki 55rtl min. pump and is power hog(major factor).I'm already using big kilowatts on my 265g w/75g sump.Bottom line I was disappointed with it overall.
