    About 2 cubes a day. Scrubber grew well before the skimmer and vinegar, but couldn't out compete cyano in the display for some reason. The combo of skimmer, vinegar and scrubber seems to be doing a good job keeping the cyano at bay, but now I only get a handful of algae every two weeks rather than several handfuls every 10 days.

    Yup, same here.. cyano died within 48hrs of connecting skimmer. Scrubber was still growing till I added vinegar. I think tank shifted a bit from algae as primary filtration to bacterial. The bacteria has the n and p undetectable not leaving much for the scrubber. Thats my theory at least.
