You ever try adding some wooden air stones to your sump ?? You could also put one near the intake of your skimmer to help turbo charge it.

My first question is then if your skimmer is big enough? If you will have maximal effect of the scrubber you must have a quite big skimmer, thus, a lot of air/h through the divesorb-bed. A small skimmer will not take out the advantage of the divesorb bed.My low is 7.6 high 8.01 WITH scrubber and open doors :-(
How many litres air/hour do the skimmer draw? and how big is the aquarium?Apex and Red Sea. Confirmed. Plenty of surface shot and reef Octo skimmer in sump. It's irritating.
90 gallon and I have no clue liters/hour air draw. How would I know? I know it's huge and skins perfectly...How many litres air/hour do the skimmer draw? and how big is the aquarium?
Awesome write up thank for sharing, this is why I luv r2r everyone shares good ideas
Where did you get your soda lime? I just ran through a cartridge of Two Little Fishies media in about eight days. I have some BRS media coming in soon, and hopefully it last longer (I turned down the air intake to the skimmer so hopefully that helps a little), but even if it lasts twice as long that'll still get expensive over time. Googling "soda lime" didn't bring up many options for me...
You have potentially saved me many pennies. Thank you, sir.
Nice thread that I haven't seen!
this is creepy...exactly my experience including the hole in the wall with silatic around the Polytube. Starting on a scrubber right away My winter 7.9 bugs me. Thanks for the great post.
