Folks,
I just got the 55 gallon setup for curing (which you can follow on my Tank Builds thread: iChillum's 55 Gallon Acrylic) last night.

I'm writing this thread more for positive affirmation than anything...but looking for folks that have experience with the Aquamaxx HOB-1 Protein Skimmer. I've read previously that it can take a good amount of time to break-in. Over the last 12-hrs, it has been VERY wet, and has literally been adjusted to the maximum height since the waste reservoir was filling so rapidly.
Anyone else have similar experiences to make me feel more comfortable? I've read everything from a couple days...to a couple weeks before you really start producing some serious sludge. Also I am of the full realization that I really don't have any bio-load yet :smug:
