skimming

[crypt-keeper]

is it best to wet skim or dry skim???

[spazz]

they say wet is better because it pulls more out of the tank. but you have to keep and eye on the salinity level in the tank. it will slowly drop over time.
i run super wet and just do my water changes every 2 weeks with a higher salinity level in my new water to replace the lost salt.

I skim my tank with a drier foam, if you skim wet, you wont be pulling out as much nutrients as you could. You would be pulling more water than nutrients. When you skim dry you will actually get a milkshake thick affect withthe skimmate, then you are getting all that the skimmer has to offer out.
