    I have a 45g refugium filtration set up with chaetos, a phosphate reactor that keeps my phosphate level at .01, and an ASM G2 skimmer that works awesome and keeps my nitrates at zero. I remove 20 gals of water every month but I think I'm going to switch it to twice a month. What do you guys think? Currently, I have a total of 17 fish:

    2 dorys:) for my daughter
    1 yellow tang
    1 lavender tang
    1 coris wrasse
    1 yellow wrasse
    1 6 line wrasse
    5 blk/white clowns
    1 true percula
    1 huge maroon clown
    1 marine betta
    1 foxface
    1 coral beauty

    The purple tang I removed after the yellow tang decided he was the king of the tank. The trigger I removed after he had a taste for gonis. Do you guys think I have too many fish? Please let me know.

    The 1st pic of the skimmer is after 24 hours, the 2nd one is a weeks worth of good smelly gunk lol
