Protien Skimmer Thread Redux

[mother]

There was a thread here last night about protien skimmers. It is gone now. Another server hiccup, I suppose. I lost my registration also.
Anyway, my question is... How effective are PSkimmers on freshwater tanks? Any down sides? Do many people use them on freshwater set-ups?

I found some other threads on the subject that answer most of my questions. Now I need to know what a venturi valve does and what one costs that is set up correctly for FW.

Cool. Thanks, Doc. I feel schooled.
