i have a question about filtering. i have had a 30g reef up and running for about 3-4 months now. i have 35 pounds of fiji LR and a bac-pac protein skimmer and large CPR HOB refuge with 2-3 inchs of sand.
over these past months i have seen waste settling in my refuge and inside my bac-pac skimmer. i dont have any means of machainal filtration. i have had trouble with it in the past and i dont care for canister or hob filters. how can i get rid of some of this waste that's acumalating in my tank. i dont have any kinda problem with alage (knock on wood) and i do PWC's every monday 5g's i dont have many hermits or snails either. i used to have them and the hermits had a feild day with the snails and wreck havoc on my tank. right now i have about 6 hermits, 6 snails, and 2 O.clowns and millions of pods and amppods in my tank.
Any Idea's
