Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Well they do similar things. But not the exact thing. In an ideal world both the skimmer and the scrubber would be utilized. While the scrubber removes nutrients. The skimmer removes particles, hopefully before they become nutrients. Is really more of a space/preference thing. Personally I...
Some people may have different ways of doing things. The following advice is more opinion and preference than hard facts.
