I've had my system up and running for about a year now, I have a 55 gallon with chiller, prizim skimmer, emperor 400 filter, 4 power heads, 95 lbs live lock. and 5 small fish. Everything is running beautiful, my question now is my lfs has told me to take the emperor off and skimmer, he says the live rock and powerheads is enough. Is this true, or why mess with something has been running so good......his biggest this is that the emperor is nothing more than a nitrate maker, and the skimmer is just stripping the trace minerals out....I do WEEKLY 20% water changes, what in your opinion is the best solution, would it be ok to remove the emperor?????
