How long has the skimmer been running?

 

[beaglelax]

Well although it is true that more fish will produce more waste, are not getting much skimate at all, are you wet skimming or dry?

Try asking your question in the deltec forum

Are you rinsing any foods you are feeding that fish that is frozen? also are you constantly putting your hand in the tank?
