I've been throuh 2 balasts in 10 months...is this normal? Its a small balast for a 20(vertical)g set up. Any info would be helpful. Thanks

I have a 200 buck budget for a protein skimmer. My tank is a 20 gal tank with only 2 little fish (one goby/one blenny) 2 shrimp(one coral banded/one pepp), lots of hermits, lots of rock and several different kinds of polyps (and one sprig of kenya). Whats the best I can get? Thanks!

Interesting. B/c I do..and its all gone as of late. Interesting. Guess, as always..has a lot to do with yoru tank as a whole.
