we were led
to believe that a biological filter was required to convert Amonia to Nitrite then Nitrite to Nitrate, Your live rock does that job for you. The skimmer is for dissolved organics/phosphates which canister filters do not do good at. Those two are food for algae so that's why people keep them low. Live Rock Skimmer Sump w/Algae is how I see it prioritized. ~John
