The Science of Protein Skimmers. How, Why, and When. | 52SE

[@hdemetri]

As a new reefer, only 4.5 months in, this completely answers all of my questions about skimming in a single video. Thank you!

[@brianmagee5847]

Thanks for all the amazing content over the years...not to complain but wasn't the idea of 52 weeks of reefing to have a video each week? The formula you set years ago was simple. What changed?

[@Venom-kf6jp]

hard to explain how great this was. so detailed. I'm a new reefer as well and this makes me feel like I understand skimmers. Love all the examples and tests.

[@Jay-dq5vg]

So is this series being abandoned with Ryan taking time away? Is someone going to be taking over? Whats happening to the tanks? I was super curious how the tanks would come along. Would be nice to get an update good or bad on whats happening.

[@taylorsegreti9578]

Ya same, what’s going on here

[@Merknilash]

There are probably all kinds of things going on behind the scenes For one, this series is of course on hold for a variety of reasons. For two, there seems to be a big pause in their video content in general - notice how Matthew hasn't done anything in a while?

[@stevecox8066]

I don't even have a skimmer and this episode was fantastic. What a great FULL explanation of everything about skimmers. Thanks Ryan!

[@RiderTalkHQ]

You just explained in a way.I’ve never thought of why I won’t get in a hot tub. You’re basically taking a bath in a protein skimmer.

[@comment.highlighted]

Yes, I love the science of how things work so I can decide if and Why I need it. Thank you 🙂

[@balinttatrai396]

Awesome vid! Thank you!!! It cleared out so many questions i had! 🙏

[@gavinj6800]

Awesome video with a wealth of accurate information..thanks

How long should I wait when I first turn on the skimmer and put the bubbles at the middle of the neck? Everyone says to put it at that level but no one says if it starts foaming in hours or days, I've had mine for two days and it doesn't foam, I have the air completely open, I have the skimmer 23 cm submerged in the sump

[@shallowreefing]

I love watching BRS. But this new 52 SE is harder to follow along with due to how the videos are structured.

[@mattheb01]

What ever happened with that tank you did a few months back planning on keeping a grouper with chromis? Are there any updates on that if so did the chromis act as a good dither fish for the grouper or did they get eaten? And what would the same scenario be like with an oriental sweetlips?

HELP! My alk at 4.6 would one add kh buffer or all for reef ?

[@dusk1947]

Excellent Video

[@attilanemeth1012]

Hello! I love BRTS TV, I watch every video a hundred times. I also copied my AI Prime setup from you. I would like to ask if you have any experience with the correct setting of the Aquamaxx Bullet 3? I bought it half a year ago and it doesn't want to work normally. Could you please help me? Thank you in advance!

[@geraldfichtner1915]

Is the skim mate from a marine reef of any Value back into the tank system at some point or into a separate closed loop system of Macro or Mangro or Phyto or Zoo plankton ?

[@cryptwalk7575]

Hey Ryan, I've been in the hobby for a long time and I have been enjoying your videos for a long time. I have a question I have a 110 gal. Tru view tank with a piggy back sump system attached to the back of the tank, how can I make a external refugium to the tank while keeping the same skimmer filtration system that came with the tank? Just a sump with a pump without the skimmer inside? I used to be fish only and now im getting into corals. I appreciate any help thanks

[@DGGuaglianone]

Skimmer is probably 80% the filter in my tank. The rest is picked up in weekly water changes siphoning detritus and algae

[@oldschoolnewventure845]

Hey Ryan are you going to grace us with your presence at paloozaNew York?

[@grow-with-a-growl-farm]

very high nitrate in a reef, skimmer yes or no?

[@kidzag]

Dead to me !!…BRS sold out, thanks Ryan 👍

[@reefmagick446]

Huh? What he do?

[@danielangarita1724]

Is 52SE cancelled?

[@Mal_Dyl]

Most likely, It's been months and on other social media pages this channel acts more as advertising products than what they were back in the day. Sad to see this happen.

[@Worldofant]

[@mordecai0815]
