Roller mat or Skimmer or BOTH?

[Liquidlar]

I heard somewhere that roller mats will fight with a skimmer and lower the ammount of skimmate. They said you could just pick one. I don't know how true this was so im asking on here to see what you guys think.

In my opinion, both. I am running a RedSea ReefMat and a skimmer. They work great together.

I run both as well. XXL750 with 1200 reefmat and an ASM g3 Skimmer

Both. Mat removes solids and skimmer removes dissolved organics.
