If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
...please note that shrimp are very sensitive to this and I'm told by fellow aquarists that your skimmer should help remove many nitrates as well.

its not easier, sand just traps less detrus than cc
Yes, my LFS did say that. Thanks for the correction.
My PS never seemed to work as well since I moved it to the sump. The power head (maxi-1200) has further to push with this set up. Is is just a matter of gettting a more powerful powerhead? It seems to collect sporadically more than continuously.
