even after a water change, my nitrates are stuck at 20...
skimmer is running great etc... did my normal cleaning ritual tonight and decided to clean the overflow as well... the CPR overflow has a sponge that sits on each of the plastic filter screens that push into the bulkheads. they had a stank! cleaned them and a TON of gunk came out of them... Decided to leave them off and let the skimmer take care of the crud. going to check nitrates tomorrow... expecting to see a bit of a drop!
