a protein skimmer is to improve water quality by removing excess protein released by the fish, thru' excreta, fluids, etc. it also removes all the left over food that is rotting and makes the water better and cleaner, especially important if you want to keep corals, anemones, etc.

ya lo...can tell...previously without the anemones the water in the protein skinner is juz chalky. or clear....now it is yellowish.....indeed looj like urine..

yaaah, anemones release a lot of waste..especially if you feed them alot. try not to overfeed though...
