I have a beast of a skimmer in the EuroReef RS-250. It works unbelieveably well... I also run a LRC-1 Lifereef Calcium reactor setup on my tank. The skimmer creates so much foam water column up into the tube that I get a decent layer of coraline algae on the inside of the tube. I obviously do not want to scratch the tube and acrylic safe scrappers/pads do not work due to the rounded tubing.
How does everyone clean the coraline algae from their skimmers. The RS-250 is too large to soak in a bucket with vinegar. I guess I could soak it in a brute trash can but that would take quite a bit of vinegar and alot of mess. Anyone have a good idea on how to clean a large skimmer without scratching it???
Thanks for any ideas.
