Ok so I thought I would post a pic of my normal skimmate production with my Aqua-C EV-180 driven by a Mag 9.5.  It looks darker in the picture than it really is.  I dont really get any blobs of gunk like I see other skimmers pull.  I do get a thick buildup of crud on the inside of the cone, just doesnt seem to make it into the collection cup.  If I make the skimmate any more dry than it builds up on the inside of the cylinder below the collection cup.

Any opinions on quantity and quality of skimmate??  I think I have a pretty heavy bioload and I am starting to feed heavier.

Again I have approx 110g total water volume, ten fish and mixed reef...

???

Oh and I should add that the pic is two days worth of skimmate...
