Hi Everyone, currently have my RSR 300XL set up with a refugium and protein skimmer. Everything is generally going well however one crucial issue that is starting to annoy me and I’d love some input from you all for budget conscious options.
I have to clean the black filter foam between the skimmer and pump chamber about every two weeks. If I fail to clean this it can get so clogged the water backs up into the skimmer chamber and leads to more RO hitting the tank than I would like. Typically this only leads to a .01 drop in salinity so not the end of the word but if I don’t catch it, it could definitely be worse.
anyone have any experience with this and if so, what did you do to address it?
