What is detritus chemically? Im wondering how much nitrogen, phosphorus and carbon is in detritus? Isnt detritus just a fancy word for left over organics?
In my system im thinking of unplugging the skimmer and letting the algae turf scrubber do all the work. But my concern is detritus. If i allow it to build up is it going to cause major problems?
Im tired of cleaning the skimmer cup and it stinks like h2s too. Ive already whent without the filter socks because i dont want to clean it either lol. And so far the tank looks the same as it did without it, its been a two weeks sock free.
Ive got a few corals frags which are doing good so far. A birdsnest and acropora. There is also a few others cant remember the names.

The answer is not that simple, as we discussed here
