Hey all,
I'm wanting to change out my protein skimmer. I have a seaclone 100. It was the first skimmer I bought. It works okay, but it seems to stop skimming whenever something enters the tank. So every time I feed, reach into the tank, etc. It is also pretty noisy. I am wanting to buy a Reef Octopus skimmer. How would I go about the transition? The new skimmer will need a break in period and I don't want to leave the tank without for however long it will take. Can I leave the old one running while the new one breaks in?
