Just picked up some Microbacter 7 and wanted to get some input on users with Bare bottom systems and see how effective it is.
Since there is no sand for the bacteria to colonize I'm just wondering how effective it would be for the bacteria to just colonize on the live rock and other surfaces of your tank.
Also would running filter socks be counter productive since these are changed every few days?
Lastly my understanding is that the product lowers ph somewhat and I am thinking of keeping my skimmer instead of turning it off for four hour as the directions indicate.
Input appreciated.
Thanks.
